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
This lecture will be a hybrid session which will be accessible both online and in person.
Registration is only required for online attendance, here: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/zZXYK4gkTOy4kq2PRH3PNA#/registration
Dr Ilana Wartenberg is head of Italia Judaica at the Goldstein-Goren Diaspora Research Centre at Tel Aviv University. She is a specialist of medieval and early modern Hebrew science as well as the history of Hebrew as a language of science. Her research project in Italia Judaica is devoted to mathematical and astronomical Hebrew treatises as well as philosophical glossaries from Renaissance Italy in which the vernacular and Latin play a central role, shedding new light on numerous facets stretching far beyond the scientific sphere.
The lecture will be followed by refreshments.
