OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

This paper will focus on the sole surviving book of accounts of an aqueduct from fourteenth-century Genoa, Italy. It will explore how we can understand the place of water in daily life in medieval cities, and how we can think about the relationship between natural resources, public use and private ownership.
