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
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.
