OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Giovanna Di Martino and Estelle Baudou will discuss their on-going workshopping of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon. In October 2019, a workshop group composed of postgraduate students and researchers began working on translations of the parodos of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon.
Their translations were then challenged theatrically with the help of stage exercises, and collectively amended, where needed. The workshop’s main objective was to use practice in order to build a translation/script for the stage, and explore how the translation could highlight the dramaturgy of the source text. However, when the lockdown began in the UK, the workshop moved to a Zoom format!
Join Di Martino and Baudo to discuss this fascinating transition, archival memory, and the discovery of a new intermediary space connecting translation, philology, and dramaturgy.
This event will be live-streamed via Microsoft Teams. To register please email: mariachiara.leteo@lincoln.ox.ac.uk with the subject line: “Week 6 – Discussion Group registration”
