OxTalks is Changing
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.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Lecture 2: Shanghai
Please note that all six lectures will take place in-person only, and the lectures will not be recorded.
An overview of Shanghai during the 1920s and 30s, when Chinese architects responded forcefully with alternatives to the models of modern architecture promoted by the Western and Japanese occupying powers, a formidable but minuscule minority of the population.
