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

NOTCOM Research Hub (The Common Notion: Science and Consensus in the Seventeenth Century)

NOTCOM is a philosophical study of common notions, collective inquiry, and dissemination strategies in seventeenth-century natural science, with special focus on the role of so-called “common notions”. Using a ground-breaking transversal methodology, it studies:

epistemological models of consensus as they emerged from early modern controversies in logic, rhetoric, moral philosophy, theology and law, and how they were re-deployed within natural philosophy;
methods of collective inquiry in early modern natural philosophy;
the role of consensus models and methods of collective inquiry in the public dissemination of early modern natural philosophy;
the actuality of early modern consensus models and methods of collective inquiry in relation to current philosophy of science and science communication studies.
