Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Megan Walsh, author of The Subplot: What China Is Reading and Why It Matters, will discuss why it’s important to finally pay attention to Chinese fiction – an exuberant drama illustrating the complex relationship between art and politics, offering an alternative way to understand the inherent contradictions that make up China itself.
