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
The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH, The University of Oxford) and the Open University invite registrations for the annual interdisciplinary Early Modern Sensory Experiences (EMSE) workshop.
Interest in sensory experiences of the past has grown in recent years, with scholars engaging with interdisciplinary approaches in order to better understand historical lived experiences. This annual conference explores the visual, auditory, tactile, gustatory and/or olfactory experiences across the globe between c.1400 and c.1700.
This year’s conference, ‘Sensory Subjectivities’, considers sensory experiences as instances or reflections of identity and alterity and will discuss possible methodologies and approaches to this particular subject.
Note for attendees:
Registration is only available for both days together (6-7 June 2024) – online attendance is available for free.
For ‘in person’ attendance, there is a charge of £45, please register first to register your attendance, and then pay for your ticket via University Stores to confirm your ticket, here: www.oxforduniversitystores.co.uk/product-catalogue/humanities-division/humanities-division-torch-events
