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
We will be launching our seminar series with a reading group. Our theme will be the categories of age and childhood in historical analysis. We invite you to consider the following article, and, as a springboard for introductory discussions, to consider its usefulness or otherwise for your own research:
Gill Valentine, ‘Boundary Crossings: Transitions from Childhood to Adulthood’, Children’s Geographies, 1(1) (2003), pp. 37-52.
Participants may also like to look at:
Clementine Beauvais, ‘Ages and ages: the multiplication of children’s ‘ages’ in early twentieth-century child psychology’, History of Education, 45 (3) (2016), pp. 304-318.
