Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
This talk is part of the “Reopening the ‘Opening of Japan’” Two-day international graduate conference to mark the 150th anniversary of the Meiji Ishin at the Nissan Institute of Japanese Studies, University of Oxford. For our full list of speakers, please see reopeningtheopening.wordpress.com
