OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Hertford College invites you to a symposium on the connections between literature and political thought. The day will address a number of related themes: the civic value and limitations of literature; how political practices – from democracy to liberalism – condition or imperil certain forms of art; the role of the literary within political argument; the extent to which literature functions as a distinctive form of political thought.
Speakers: Amanda Anderson (Brown), David Bromwich (Yale), Richard Bourke (Cambridge); Helen Small (Oxford); Sophie Smith (Oxford); David Womersley (Oxford)
All talks will take place in the Principal’s Lodgings at Hertford College, Oxford. Please contact David Dwan for further information: david.dwan@ell.ox.ac.uk
