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
ISRAEL AND IONE MASSADA FELLOWSHIPS PROGRAMME WORCESTER COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD
As European cities laboured to replace wooden churches with larger stone ones after the first millennium, Jewish communities began a concurrent re-designing of their own public monuments. This lecture focuses on Jewish ritual baths from the 12th and 13th centuries. Built to facilitate physical and spiritual transformation these unique structures offer a window into some of the biggest theological debates of the Middle Ages.
The presentation will be followed by discussion and drinks.
The event is free and open to all.
