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
Tuesday 30th April Christening Donne Peter McCullough (Fellow in Renaissance English Literature, Lincoln College). This lecture will offer some introductory reflections on this new presentation of Donne’s greatest prose works, and on the sermons’ claims to the attention of both literary scholars and ecclesiastical historians. It will then turn in more detail to Donne’s sermons preached at christenings—a body of work long neglected but containing vital evidence of his sacramental theology, and of his responses to Calvinist and Roman Catholic thought.
