OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Join us to hear distinguished scholars Colin Burrow, Kathy Eden and Brian Cummings discussing recent and forthcoming publications on the imitation of classical literature in the Renaissance.
Readings will be pre-circulated:
· Colin Burrow, Imitating Authors: Plato to Futurity (Oxford, 2019) ch. 6, pp. 206-234.
· Brian Cummings’ ‘A Life of Learning: Erasmus’s Literary and Educational Writings’, Brill Companion to Erasmus (forthcoming)
· Kathy Eden, Chapter One, Rhetorical Renaissance: The Mistress Art and her Masterworks (work-in-progress).
All welcome, but please email Fraser Buchanan (fraser.buchanan@ell.ox.ac.uk) for the reading and to be sent a link to the Zoom meeting.
