OxTalks is Changing

OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all 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 as soon as possible.

If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk

Historical Anxiety

“Historical Anxiety” will explore anxiety about the historical present and how it impacts our understanding of the past and the future. Among the manifestations of this anxiety that will be discussed are the sense of an unending and inescapable present, the feeling that time is accelerating uncontrollably, the troubled memorialization of historical events, and the relationship between power and differing conceptions of history.
