OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Virtual Diaspora, Postcolonial Literature and Feminism
In this lecture, Dr Ashmita Khasnabish, will define “virtual diaspora” through reading and
rereading Western philosophers Deleuze and Bergson, and the Indian philosopher, Sri
Aurobindo. She further elucidates this concept interpreting it through her feminist vision as a
Postcolonial scholar who is greatly impacted by Pamela Sue Anderson’s theory of “vulnerability
and love.” Professor Anderson’s theory greatly valued Deleuze’s theory of immanence and it
impacted her feminist vision. This lecture is dedicated to the legacy of Professor Pamela Sue
Anderson, a distinguished Feminist philosopher and a much loved member of staff within
Regent’s Park College, within the University of Oxford.
