Did you think we already knew everything there was to know about Virginia Woolf? Think again! In this episode, Jacke talks to scholar and editor Urmila Seshagiri about The Life of Violet: Three Early Stories, which presents three interconnected comic stories chronicling the adventures of a giantess named Violet, which Woolf wrote in 1907, eight years before she published her first novel. The story of Seshagiri's discovery is nearly as fantastical as the stories themselves. PLUS literary biographer Jake Poller (Christopher Isherwood: A Critical Life) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Jane Morris was a muse of the Pre-Raphaelites, a central figure in the early Arts & Crafts movement and the quietly powerful presence at the heart of an influential artistic circle. In this episode, Matthew and Fenia explore the story behind Rossetti's The Blue Silk Dress, focusing on the jewellery Jane wears and the symbolism carried within the portrait. Drawing only on what is known from surviving records, letters and the painting itself, we trace Jane's path from Oxford to her role within the Morris household and the artistic world that formed around it. The bracelet, the brooch, the rich textiles and embroidery — each reflects the ideals that would shape both the Pre-Raphaelite and Arts & Crafts movements. www.courtville.ie Get social with Courtville, follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok This podcast was produced for Courtville by Tape Deck

Archival collections are political spaces: the decisions that govern whose histories are preserved, when, and by whom are not neutral. They reflect the communities that make them. For most of western history queer, trans, and gender non-conforming people were excluded from such communities. Premodern trans experiences went largely unreported and reconstructing such histories relies on the piecing together of ephemeral glimpses. Literary scholars developed tactics and tools to read through the traces, with hugely generative results that highlight the richness of non-normative premodern genders. But how do we move beyond the limits of the trace to uncover a more expansive history of premodern gender non-conformity? In Trans Histories of the Medieval Book: An Experiment in Bibliography (Arc Humanities Press, 2025), J.D. Sargan takes a methodological approach to that question. Sargan explores how experiment in applying trans approaches to the study of the premodern book offers alternatives both for trans histories and for book historical methods. J. D. Sargan is a book historian. He was educated at Queen Mary University of London and the University of Oxford. He is an Assistant Professor in the Department of English at the University of Georgia and teaches a course in Queer Bibliographies for California Rare Book School. He researches the social dynamics of book use.  Jen Hoyer is Technical Services and Electronic Resources Librarian at CUNY New York City College of Technology. She is co-author of What Primary Sources Teach: Lessons for Every Classroom (2022) and The Social Movement Archive (2021), and co-editor of Armed By Design: Posters and Publications of Cuba's Organization of Solidarity of the Peoples of Africa, Asia, and Latin America (2025).

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En el episodio de hoy nos trasladamos a la Escuela de filosofía del lenguaje de Oxford, cuna de la llamada filosofía del lenguaje ordinario. Nos centraremos en dos de sus figuras más representativas: Gilbert Ryle, conocido por su crítica al “fantasma en la máquina” y por su defensa del análisis conceptual del lenguaje cotidiano, y John L. Austin, pionero de la teoría de los actos de habla y autor de How to Do Things with Words, donde muestra cómo al hablar no solo describimos, sino que hacemos cosas con palabras. A lo largo del episodio veremos cómo, desde Oxford, esta corriente propuso una filosofía entendida como clarificación de nuestros usos lingüísticos, una especie de “cartografía” de nuestro hablar cotidiano para disolver confusiones y falsos problemas. Gracias por acompañarme una vez más en este recorrido filosófico y por el apoyo constante que sostiene este proyecto. 📗ÍNDICE 1. PENSAMIENTO DE GILBERT RYLE. 2.

When they gazed at the moon, medieval people around the globe saw an object that was at once powerful and fragile, distant and intimate—and sometimes all this at once. The moon could convey love, beauty, and gentleness; but it could also be about pain, hatred, and violence. In its circularity the moon was associated with fullness and fertility. Yet in its crescent and other shifting forms, the moon could seem broken, even wounded.  In this beautifully illustrated history The Medieval Moon: A History of Haunting and Blessing (Yale UP, 2025), Ayoush Lazikani reveals the many ways medieval people felt and wrote about the moon. Ranging across the world, from China to South America, Korea to Wales, Lazikani explores how different cultures interacted with the moon. From the idea that the Black Death was caused by a lunar eclipse to the wealth of Persian love poetry inspired by the moon's beauty, this is a truly global account of our closest celestial neighbour. Ayoush Lazikani is a lecturer at the University of Oxford. A specialist in medieval literature, she is the author of Cultivating the Heart and Emotion in Christian and Islamic Contemplative Texts, 1100–1250, and an associate editor for the Palgrave Encyclopedia of Medieval Women's Writing in the Global Middle Ages. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

L'expression française « noyer le poisson » signifie détourner l'attention, embrouiller volontairement une explication ou éviter de répondre franchement à une question. Mais l'image, elle, provient d'un geste très concret… et très ancien.À l'origine, l'expression appartient au monde de la pêche. Avant l'industrialisation, les poissons fraîchement pêchés étaient conservés vivants dans un seau ou une cuve d'eau. Lorsqu'un poissonnier voulait vendre un poisson abîmé, déjà mourant ou de mauvaise qualité, une petite astuce consistait à… le plonger dans beaucoup d'eau et le brasser. Le mouvement de l'eau donnait l'illusion d'un animal encore vif. En « noyant » littéralement le poisson sous un flot d'eau, on masquait sa faiblesse pour tromper l'acheteur.Très vite, cette image est devenue métaphorique : on « noie le poisson » quand on crée un flux d'informations, de paroles ou de détails pour dissimuler l'essentiel, comme l'eau qui dissimule l'état réel de l'animal.L'expression apparaît dans la langue au XVIIIᵉ siècle, période où la pêche fraîche est très présente dans les villes. Les dictionnaires du XIXᵉ siècle confirment déjà son sens figuré : « embarrasser une affaire au point de la rendre inextricable » ou « fatiguer un adversaire en l'empêchant d'y voir clair ».On y voit aussi un lien avec la rhétorique politique : lorsqu'un orateur répond par des détours, qu'il multiplie les digressions ou qu'il ajoute des détails superflus pour éviter une réponse directe, il « noie le poisson ».En somme : noyer le poisson, c'est noyer la vérité.Le mot « snob » apparaît en Angleterre à la fin du XVIIIᵉ siècle, mais son origine reste l'un de ces petits mystères linguistiques savoureux. L'explication la plus souvent citée renvoie aux universités britanniques, notamment Oxford et Cambridge. À l'époque, on inscrivait parfois les étudiants issus de familles modestes en notant à côté de leur nom l'abréviation s.nob., pour sine nobilitate, c'est-à-dire « sans noblesse ».Ces étudiants, exclus des privilèges aristocratiques, auraient parfois essayé d'imiter les attitudes, les goûts et les codes de la haute société pour paraître plus distingués. Peu à peu, « snob » aurait désigné quelqu'un qui singeaient les élites, qui voulait paraître plus important qu'il ne l'était réellement.Une autre explication, moins académique mais amusante, affirme que snob viendrait du vieux dialecte anglais snob, qui signifiait « cordonnier » ou « roturier ». Là encore, l'idée de quelqu'un de modeste cherchant à imiter les classes supérieures se retrouve.Dans tous les cas, au XIXᵉ siècle, le mot prend son sens moderne : une personne qui admire exagérément ce qu'elle croit supérieur, qui méprise ce qu'elle juge vulgaire, ou qui s'efforce d'adopter les comportements « à la mode ».Aujourd'hui, dire de quelqu'un qu'il est « snob », c'est dire qu'il préfère l'apparence au naturel, et la distinction au bon sens.

Our long national nightmare is over. Lake Kiffin resolved it last weekend by taking the LSU job. Does it have a big impact outside of Oxford and Baton Rouge? AL.com writer (and Lakeville native) Nick Kelly goes through the details.

Það eru ekki nema tæp fimmtíu ár síðan kommúnistastjórnin í Kína þar ákvað að opna hagkerfið, leyfa erlendar fjárfestingar og sleppa markaðsöflunum lausum, þó með stífum skilyrðum. Það sem hefur gerst síðan þá er stundum kallað kínverska kraftaverkið: Kína breyttist úr því að vera eitt af fátækustu ríkjum heims í eitt af þeim ríkustu. Hagkerfið þar er nú samkvæmt sumum mælikvörðum það stærsta í heimi og búið að vera það undanfarin ellefu ár. Kína er þannig orðið að stórveldi í viðskiptum og þungavikt í heimspólitíkinni en hvað þýðir það fyrir önnur stórveldi, ekki síst á þessum viðsjárverðu tímum sem við lifum á? Við bregðum okkur til Beijing með Birni Malmquist. Bræðibeita er orð ársins hjá Oxford-orðabókinni en það er notað yfir efni á netinu sem er ætlað að kveikja bræði eða reiði lesenda til þess að fá fólk til að smella á efnið. Þetta er kallað rage-bait á ensku en notkun þess hefur þrefaldast síðustu tólf mánuði. Oddur Þórðarson segir okkur allt um bræðibeituna.

On Monday, the White House social media team posted a video of ICE agents making arrests with Carpenter's song, "Juno" playing in the background. Carpenter responded with disgust. Do you know the band Geese? Some are calling them "Gen Z's Nirvana" and the generation's "first great rock band."

Today on the Logan Blackman Show we go over the most recent Lane Kiffin saga, which saw him leave Oxford for Baton Rouge to become the head coach of the LSU Tigers. We then take a look at the top Heisman Trophy candidates, going over their resumes as well as discussing whether or not if this has been a "bad" Heisman season. We also take a look at the recent College Football Playoff rankings, discussing who should or shouldn't be in as well as discuss why conference championship week doesn't feel the same as it has in years past. With that we go over our week 14 quarterback prospect rankings while also discussing why this class isn't as disappointing as it may seem. Finally we recap Iowa's season by grading Gronowksi, go over highs and lows of the 2024 quarterback draft class, and go over who are true Super Bowl contenders in the NFL. Enjoy!

Jawhar Aftabachi was enslaved as a child by the Ottomans in the Black Sea region in the early sixteenth century. He was then sold to the Ottoman admiral Selman Reis, who took him with his fleet to Egypt and Yemen during his wars with the Portuguese; carried, after the admiral's death, by the admiral's nephew Mustafa Bayram to Gujarat on the western coast of India; and finally, when the Mughal army invaded Gujarat in 1534, taken into imperial service along with thousands of Eurasian and Abyssinian slaves. Here he rose to the position of water-carrier for the Mughal Emperor Humayun and chronicled this experience in a remarkable , Persian text called Tazkirah-i Vaqi`at or “memoir of events”. In Slavery in the Early Mughal World: The Life and Thoughts of Jawhar Aftabachi (1520s–1580s) (Oxford UP, 2025), Ali Anooshahr uses Jawhar's life and memoirs as a unique window into slavery, selfhood, and the rise of the early modern Indian Ocean world. Bringing a micro-historical study to a "subaltern Mughal author" offers the opportunity to reassess the history of slavery in South Asia from an original perspective and to reframe the connected history of the early modern world. Jawhar's life shows in vivid detail the eruption of the Mediterranean and Black Sea cultural regions into the Indian Ocean world, shedding light onto the collapse of older bonds of interdependency in the face of impersonal structures of new centralized states, and bearing witness to the process of individualization of people which was experienced not as a triumphalist "rise of the self" but as alienation. Ali Anooshahr is a historian of Mughal India as well as the "Persianate World" during the early modern era. He received his B.A. from the University of Texas at Austin in 1998, and his M.A. (2002) and Ph.D. (2005) from UCLA. He is a Professor of History at the University of California, Davis. His books include The Ghazi Sultans and the Frontiers of Islam: A Comparative Study of the Late Medieval and Early Modern Periods (Routledge, 2009), Turkestan and the Rise of Eurasian Empires: A Study of Politics and Invented Traditions (Oxford, 2018), and (edited with Ebba Koch) The Mughal Empire from Jahangir to Shah Jahan: Art, Architecture, Politics, Law and Literature (The Marg Foundation, March 2019). His research has been supported by fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Mellon Foundation, and the Hellman Foundations, among others. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Carmen LaBerge responds to WalletHub's list of top cities for sin in the US, as well as Oxford's choice of "rage bait" as the word of 2025.  While many focus on these words, what words do we need to focus on?  Apologist Daniel DeWitt, creative director for Scholar Leaders and blogs at Theolatte, reflects on how (then) atheist C.S. Lewis reconsidered the Gospel because J.R.R. Tolkien encouraged him to look afresh at the incarnation.   The Reconnect with Carmen and all Faith Radio podcasts are made possible by your support.

"Drácula" es una novela de fantasía gótica escrita por Bram Stoker, publicada en 1897.​ Publicada en castellano por Ediciones Hymsa bajo la colección La novela aventura en 1938, con portada de Juan Pablo Bocquet e ilustraciones de Femenía.​ Drácula fue elogiada por autores como Arthur Conan Doyle u Oscar Wilde.​ Hasta el día de hoy no ha dejado de publicarse, ha sido traducida a más de cincuenta idiomas y ha logrado vender alrededor de doce millones de copias. Sin embargo, era mantenida en el terreno marginal de la literatura sensacionalista y solo en 1983 fue incorporada entre los clásicos de la Universidad de Oxford.​ Su personaje protagonista, el conde Drácula, se volvió el arquetipo de vampiro occidental por antonomasia, siendo considerado el más famoso de la cultura popular. La popularidad de su personaje es tal que ha sido adaptado al cine, cómics, teatro y/o televisión en innumerables ocasiones; siendo la más fiel al libro y la más destacada la adaptación al cine realizada por Francis Ford Coppola en 1992.

At the start of Shakespeare's famous tragedy, King Lear promises to divide his kingdom based on his daughters' professions of love, but he portions it out before hearing all of their answers. For Nan Da, a professor of English literature who emigrated from China to the United States as a child in the 1990s, this startling opening scene sparked a reckoning between Shakespeare's cruel and confounding story and the tragedy of Maoist and post-Maoist China. In this episode, Jacke talks to Nan about her book The Chinese Tragedy of King Lear. PLUS literary biographer Iris Jamahl Dunkle (Charmian Kittredge London: Trailblazer, Author, Adventurer) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read.

Rage bait was just named Oxford's 2025 Word of the Year, so I'm bringing back one of my most talked about episodes.  After being interviewed by the BBC last year about this topic, I was invited back again this week, along with 14 syndicated interviews across Canada on CBC, all because interest in rage bait has exploded. In this re-run, I revisit what rage bait actually is, how it works, and why it is such a powerful emotional trigger online.  I also break down the difference between satire, clickbait, shitposting, and true rage bait, plus the long term impact these tactics can have on your mental health and your brand. This episode is your guide to understanding the internet's most explosive trend. In this episode of the podcast, I talk about: Why rage bait was named the 2025 Word of the Year How rage bait works and why it spreads so quickly The thin line between satire and manipulation How TikTok changed virality and discoverability Why rage based content damages trust and community …And More!   This Episode Was Made Possible By: Riverside All-in-One Podcast & Video Platform Visit Riverside and use the code DREA to get 15% off any Riverside individual plan.

Season 5 of Stranger Things is already Netflix's biggest English-language release, 2025 Black Friday shopping cost more but yielded less, and making sense of expensive Christmas wish lists for Gen Z and Gen Alpha.   Song of the Week - "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" by Brenda Lee   In Other News... Oxford named "rage bait" as its word of the year and the internet immediately proved their point by fighting about it. It's officially "Wrapped" season as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Twitch, and many others put nice packaging on all the user-data they gathered this year. Sabrina Carpenter and the White House have beef. On Monday, the White House social media team posted a video of ICE agents making arrests with Carpenter's song, "Juno" playing in the background. Carpenter responded with disgust. Do you know the band Geese? Some are calling them "Gen Z's Nirvana" and the generation's "first great rock band." On TikTok, the word "genuinely" (language) has now become a comically overused way to emphasize anything and everything. Click to join our Advent for the Record Listening Experience!

This week's show is with Caitlín Matthews. Caitlín is an internationally renowned author, a teacher of shamanic training programme, a facilitator of Systemic Ritual® and the co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (FÍOS). Caitlín is the author of over 80 books, including Diary of a Soul Doctor, Singing the Soul Back Home, the Art of Celtic Seership, Celtic Devotional and The Celtic Book of the Dead. Her books have won a number of awards. She is known internationally for her work on the spiritual, mythic and ancestral traditions of Britain and Ireland. She teaches and works with communities and spiritual institutions worldwide from Iceland to Portugal and from USA to Australia. Caitlín is a co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (FÍOS), which is dedicated to the sacred arts that shape the landscape of the soul, via vision, dream and memory. FÍOS hosts masterclasses with exemplars of living, oracular sacred traditions that are rarely recorded in writing or given an honourable place in modern society. Caitlín has had a shamanic healing practice in Oxford for the last 30 years, working in the community to deepen connections to the ancestral traditions which are our heritage. In this conversation, Lian and Caitlín explore what a real, living spiritual practice looks like in the midst of modern life, touching on the way people become porous when they have no spiritual resource, and the jittery fear that grows when we only trust material safety. They share what actually helps in the every day: small repeatable practices, honest prayer that uses different prepositions, and rooting myth and archetype back in the land beneath your feet so you stay human rather than trying to become a god. Listen if you have ever longed for a daily practice that feels real, wondered where to begin, or worried that you are somehow "not authorised" to walk a spiritual path. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: How simple, daily gestures of attention to body, land, weather and soul can turn spiritual practice from a guilty obligation into a steady resource that stops you feeling like that unglazed china cup Why Caitlin's way of praying for, with, from and to reshapes responsibility, dissolves the fear of "doing it wrong", and widens who and what you understand yourself to be in relationship with What happens when you root archetypes, myths and personal practice in actual soil, seasons and place rather than abstract psychology: the stories come alive, your own life steadies, and you remain a person in service to the myth rather than being swallowed by it Resources and stuff that we spoke about: For Caitlín's books & courses see: www.hallowquest.org.uk For more of Caitlín's writing on a range of topics, including a year-long course, Blessings of the Celtic Year, see her Hallowquest Sanctuary at https://substack.com/@caitlinmatthewstigerna Join UNIO, The Community for Wild Sovereign Souls: This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul's calling to truly live your myth.

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov dig into Trump's latest anti-immigrant crackdown—from firing nearly 100 immigration judges to freezing visas and floating denaturalization — and what happens when policy is driven by panic instead of evidence. Then they break down the viral post arguing the real poverty line isn't $32K… it's closer to $140K, and why so many families feel stuck in the “Valley of Death.” Plus, Oxford just crowned “rage bait” as its Word of the Year, so they unpack how outrage became the internet's favorite currency — and what it means for our politics.

I am thrilled to reconnect with Nick Norwitz today. Nick is a researcher and educator with a mission to make metabolic health a mainstream concern. He graduated valedictorian from Dartmouth College, completed his PhD in metabolism at the University of Oxford, and earned his MD at Harvard Medical School. He has become known as a clinical researcher and metabolic health educator, speaking and writing on various topics, including brain health, microbiome, mitochondrial function, cholesterol, and more.  In our conversation, we discuss the challenges of providing evidence-based medicine, and Nick shares his personal story of overcoming inflammatory bowel disease with a ketogenic diet. We explore the research on statins reducing endogenous GLP-1 production, highlighting the importance of staying curious. We also clarify the different types of type 2 diabetes, the effects of biomolecular aging, and different perspectives on Lp(a).  Nick always provides thoughtful and valuable insights on a range of topics. His Substack is one of my favorites, sharing several ways to enhance your learning process, as a clinician or a layperson. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How his struggle with inflammatory bowel disease led Nick to realize that the evidence-based care of western medicine is not always the best type of care, and how a ketogenic diet saved his life How a recent study highlighted several major physical issues statins cause, yet it went largely unnoticed in medicine and the media The need for clinicians to inform their patients about the potential side effects of their medications How physicians tend to ignore evidence in favor of one-sided messaging that erodes trust and undermines informed care The importance of remaining curious and acknowledging that what you learned initially might be incorrect How technological advances will make personalized medicine the future of healthcare The limitations of traditional one-size-fits-all randomized controlled trials The sub-phenotypes of type 2 diabetes How enzyme inhibitors (like statins) disrupt the gut microbiome How metabolic health and oxidative stress affect Lp(a), and how vitamin C can potentially reduce its impact Bio: Nick Norwitz Nick Norwitz, MD, PhD, is a researcher-educator whose mission is to “Make Metabolic Health Mainstream.” He graduated Valedictorian from Dartmouth College, majoring in Cell Biology and Biochemistry, before completing his PhD in Metabolism at the University of Oxford and his MD at Harvard Medical School.  Nick has made a name for himself as a clinical research and metabolic health educator, speaking and writing on topics ranging from brain health, the microbiome, and mental health to muscle physiology, mitochondrial function, and cholesterol and lipids.

Quantum computing is often dismissed as a distant sci-fi future, but Ethereum OG John Lilic and Oxford physicist Stefano Gogioso argue the timeline is shrinking fast with roadmaps converging around 2030. In this episode, they break down the "woeful" state of quantum readiness in crypto, explaining how Shor's algorithm could eventually shatter the elliptic curve cryptography protecting Bitcoin and Ethereum.They also explore the terrifying concept of "harvest now, decrypt later," which implies that encrypted data and privacy coins like Monero may essentially be compromised already. Finally, they introduce "Quantum Money," a revolutionary form of digital cash developed by Stefano's startup NeverLocal, which relies on the laws of physics rather than blockchain consensus to prevent double-spending.Topics00:00 Intro03:00 John's Quantum Awakening08:00 Defining Quantum Computing13:30 Logical Qubits Explained18:15 Crypto's "Woeful" Readiness23:30 "Harvest Now" Threat28:45 Monero's Privacy Risk33:15 What is Quantum Money?40:00 Investment & HedgingLinksJohn Lilic on X: https://x.com/LilicJohnStefano Gogioso on X: https://x.com/StefanoGogiosoNeverLocal: https://neverlocal.com Quantum.info: https://quantum.infoGnosis: https://gnosis.io/Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis has been building core decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem since 2015.

It's Wednesday, December 3rd, and Norm is just wondering why the NFL insists on giving us a Thursday night matchup between two teams clinging to the playoff picture like a wet paper towel on a ceiling fan. Cowboys vs. Lions: one has momentum, the other has medical bills. One's getting healthier, the other's putting half their offense on IR. And yes—both somehow still have a shot at the postseason.Norm breaks down just how desperate this “Survival Bowl” really is, why Detroit looks like a MASH unit, and why Dallas might accidentally stumble into relevance again. Then he pivots to the SEC, where Lane Kiffin is doing what Lane Kiffin always does: saying his “heart” is in Oxford while packing his bags for Baton Rouge and taking half the campus with him. Prayer? Please. Kiffin made his mind up before the postgame Gatorade dried.It's snark, it's football, it's Norm not buying a single ounce of coach-speak.

Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593) was born into relative obscurity and died in mysterious circumstances at the age of 29. And yet, somehow this ambitious cobbler's son brought about a spectacular explosion of English literature, language, and culture. In this episode, Jacke talks to Stephen Greenblatt about his book Dark Renaissance: The Dangerous Times and Fatal Genius of Shakespeare's Greatest Rival, which illuminates both Marlowe's times and the origins and significance of his work. PLUS author Eric Marshall White (Johannes Gutenberg: A Biography in Books) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.
