On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This talk explores the phobic disgust and erotic fixation surrounding elderly witches in early modern drama, analysing their supernatural attempts to restore youth, reproduce, seduce young men, and commit sexual violence. It investigates the troubling gender ambiguity and predation with which playwrights characterise senescent bodies, and probes the historical overlap between transphobia and gerontophobia.
