OxTalks is Changing
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
The Making of "Veer Savarkar": Methods for Writing an Intellectual History
This paper examines the conceptualization of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar as “Veer Savarkar” in the early decades of the twentieth century. It argues that Savarkar’s writings about heroism, bravery, and masculinity helped to shape his political subjectivity as “Veer Savarkar.” Savarkar’s engagement with contemporary methodological debates on biography, autobiography, and a history of ideas will also be examined.
