OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Religion(s) and Nature(s) Reading Group: SAGA OF THE SWAMP THING
In an effort to generate more discussion and collaboration on the scholarly study of religious naturalism, the Editorial Board of the Journal of the Oxford Graduate Theological Society is organizing a reading group on Alan Moore and Stephen Bissette’s influential run of Swamp Thing (1984–1987) and academic literature related to its sociohistorical context and themes. Moore’s writing explores sacred conceptions of nature, non-human life, magic, and psychedelic experiences. Brought to life by Bissette’s art, Saga of the Swamp Thing is perhaps the definitive tale of ecospirituality in the comics medium. All humans (and plant-monsters) are invited to join us to discuss this influential work.
