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.
The 2025 John Stuart Mill Lecture: Mill on the Complementarity of Permanence and Change
Professor Moody-Adams’ paper will explore Mill’s claim that Jeremy Bentham and Samuel Taylor Coleridge were the two great “half-men” of their time, asking whether this assertion illuminates Mill’s view of the relationship between tradition and progress, or does it reveal a fundamental ambivalence at the core of Mill’s thought, and what this might tell us about Mill’s understanding of truth.
