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
A seminar series exploring a part of the world which for centuries has been an important meeting point of civilizations and witnessed Christian-Muslim relations of widely differing kinds. The Ottoman Empire was a multi-religious area, extending well beyond the borders of modern Türkiye/Turkey. This series will look at past and present, and relations driven by a complex blend of scriptures, politics, sometimes even piracy, and the weight of history.
