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
Join the Oxonian Review for a conversation with the critic, editor and writer Tom Crewe. Crewe has been an editor at the London Review of Books since 2015, and his debut novel, The New Life (January 2023), was one of 2023’s most anticipated debuts. It fictionalises the lives of John Addington Symonds and Henry Havelock Ellis as they collaborate on a study of so-called ‘sexual inverts’ in 1890s London. He has recently been named as one of Granta’s influential ‘Best of Young British Novelists’ lists; previous iterations of the list have featured writers like William Boyd, Kazuo Ishiguro and Julian Barnes. Tom has contributed essays to the LRB on topics ranging from Ivan Turgenev to the Labour party to the similarities between Charles II and Margaret Oliphant. Prior to joining the LRB he completed a PhD in nineteenth-century history at the University of Cambridge.
