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.

This two-term seminar series centres around the public role of those studying the past. Scholars with a public profile discuss ‘public history’ not as something separate but as an integral part of their activities as researchers. Art historians, historians, literature scholars who, amongst others, have published with popular presses, made documentaries, or are involved in museums will share their expertise. Combining research questions with practical thinking about communication, these sessions will allow reflections on how research translates into wider conversations.
