OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future 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 on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

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
