OxTalks is Changing
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
Summa Contra Gentiles Reading, Commentary, and Translation Group
The reading group is a ‘Summa Contra Gentiles Reading, Commentary, and Translation Group’.
It will take place from 1200 — 1400 on Wednesdays during term time, in the Front Lecture Room of Blackfriars Hall. (Please ring the doorbell to be let in.)
The relevant text for Trinity Term is Aquinas’s Summa Contra Gentiles, Part IV, Questions 27 — 49, in the Marietti manuscript.
The format will be as follows, with options for those who (a) feel confident in their Latin as well as for (b) those who have no Latin or are not confident in it:
Before the meeting: You may either (a) focus on providing a new translation for the week’s questions on the Summa Contra Gentiles or (b) concentrate on providing a commentary on these questions (perhaps using the already existing English translation from dhspriory.org/thomas/ContraGentiles4.htm), as appropriate.
During the meeting: We will go over (a) translation issues and (b) textual interpretations, as well as our individual commentaries, with the goal of generating both (i) a coherent translation and (ii) exegetical commentary.
