TORCH Goes Digital: Journeys
“Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.
You must travel it by yourself.
It is not far. It is within reach.
Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know.
Perhaps it is everywhere - on water and land.”
― Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
Our theme for TORCH Goes Digital this week is "Journeys". Working with the great wealth of material created by the incredible researchers at the University of Oxford and beyond, the TORCH Team has curated a brilliant programme of blog posts, podcasts, news articles, poems, performances and more for you to enjoy.
This week, we will be showcasing content including:
- Two reflections on 12 Years a Slave
- 'I wish there was a world for us': the search for utopic recognition in queer comics
- All the World’s a Page – How to Travel the World with Literature
- Britain's History and Memory of Transatlantic Slavery
Remember, we are happy to consider content submissions related to this theme, be it a poem, artwork, blog post, or book review!
Unleash your creativity, and send your suggestions and content to torch@humanities.ox.ac.uk.
