OxTalks is Changing
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
Life after the Anthropocene
The Anthropocene heralds a new epoch, initiated once humans became a geological force. This contested diagnosis marks a set of events: the moment when the ‘earth system’ tipped out of Holocene jeopardising the conditions that enabled human flourishing; the corollary political moment when various publics began talking about a planet open to modes of ‘stewardship’ and forms of planetary earth governance; and the conceptual moment when the earth enters into history and politics and familiar, modern and humanist models of thought no longer hold. This seminar series engages speakers and audiences in conceiving new forms of life and ways of living after these events. It explores ‘more-than-human’ and ‘multinatural’ ways out of the Anthropocene, developing new relations for future epochs.
