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
Prof. Penslar, Prof. Yadgar, and Prof. Peleg will discuss some fundamental themes in Israel Studies through their recently published books:

Professor Yaron Peleg, New Hebrews: Making National Culture in Zion, Cambridge University Press, 2025
This new books event is part of the joint Harvard, Cambridge, and Oxford workshop “Transnational Belonging, Identity and Emotion: Current Themes in Israel Studies”.
