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 as we continue this term’s discussion of British socialism’s response to the Soviet Union with a guest lecture and a roundtable conversation. We’re delighted to welcome Professor Kevin Morgan (University of Manchester), author of Bolshevism and the British Left (2006-2013) and studies of Harry Pollitt (1993), Ramsay MacDonald (2006), and A A Purcell (2013), and an editor of Twentieth Century Communism: A Journal of International History. Kevin’s talk will be followed by a roundtable conversation about researching British socialism through early twentieth-century periodicals and newspapers and the prospects for future digitisation.
