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
On behalf of the Research Director Julia Smith, I would like to invite you all to the Trinity Term Research Forum. The forum will take place 13:00-14:30 on Wednesday 12 June, in the Faculty Common Room.
The format will be an informal monograph showcase, due to the success of this format last year, and a sandwich lunch will be provided. Three books will be briefly introduced and reviewed by a colleague from a different field, followed by a response from each author and some discussion. The books for review are:
Philippa Byrne, Justice and mercy: Moral theology and the exercise of law in twelfth-century England; reviewed by Ben Jackson.
Marc Mulholland, The Murderer of Warren Street: The True Story of a Nineteenth-Century Revolutionary; reviewed by Hannah Skoda.
Alan Strathern, Unearthly Powers: Religious and Political Change in World History; reviewed by David Priestland.
Many thanks to our authors and reviewers for kindly taking part.
To give an idea of numbers for catering purposes, please RSVP to rf@history.ox.ac.uk by 5th June, with any dietary requirements.
