OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Humour Network Writing Group Meetings
Open to all – DPhil students and ECRs especially welcome!
Looking for time and space to focus on your writing? Come to our regular writing group meetings. This group is designed for scholars who engage with humour in their research, whether through literature, performance, media, history, philosophy, anthropology, cultural studies, or other. We provide structured time for focused writing, support each other’s accountability, and offer a community for those who share an interest in the study of humour. Snacks, tea, and coffee will be provided.
