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 Accounts of a Genoese Aqueduct: Tapping into the Social History of Water in Medieval Cities
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.
