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.
In a world-context shaped by urgency and insurgency, I want to consider aesthetic temporality and specificity of sentences. What is the invocation of “now” that lives in a poetic line or a prose phrase, and is it distinct from the “now” of insurgency? How does the act—the phenomenon—of reading explicate what we might know of criticism? In these queries, I want to explore some of the conditions of black literary criticism given the state of a disastrous world.
