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.
Led by Katie Murphy and Lorna Hutson, this Research Seminar will offer early modernists, especially graduate students, a chance to discuss
extracts from very recent publications in English Renaissance/early modern literature so as to take the temperature of contemporary research, methodologies and forms of inquiry and writing.
We will discuss one chapter from Jennifer Richards’s Voices and Books in the English Renaissance: A New History of Reading (Oxford, 2020) and one from Alex Davis’s Imagining Inheritance from Chaucer to Shakespeare (Oxford, 2020).

Jennifer Richards’s Voices and Books in the English Renaissance: A New History of Reading (Oxford, 2020), ch. 3, ‘The Voice in the Church’, pp. 130-181 (available through SOLO)
Alex Davis’s Imagining Inheritance from Chaucer to Shakespeare (Oxford, 2020), ch. 1 ‘ “A very perfect form of a will”: The Fictional Testament’, pp.21-56 (available through SOLO)
