OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

James Ford Lecture 3: Allurement
Determined to prove themselves different from the tyrannical Spanish, early modern British Protestants were convinced they could win converts by modelling a religious and social life so appealing that ‘heathen’ peoples would freely embrace it. This lecture will discuss why this quixotic conviction persisted in the teeth of contrary evidence, and examine the poisonous residue left by its eventual evaporation.
