Colleagues,
I’m taking the liberty of posting this link for my upcoming online lecture, “A Chinese Reading of Epictetus” (May 1, 9:30 A.M., Singapore time, which is April 30, 9:30 P.M., EDT). The time will be inconvenient for colleagues in Europe, alas.
The redoubtable Li Chenyang will be the commentator.

At the risk of shameless self-promotion, I’m posting to a link to a recent podcast interview about my new book, The Art of Chinese Philosophy, hosted by the New Books Network. Thanks to Alexus McLeod for some very thoughtful questions!

Colleagues,
Constance A. Cook and I have finally released the revised edition of our source book of bronze inscriptions:
https://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Chinese-Inscriptions-Revised-Monograph/dp/099694401X/
If you have the first edition, I don’t think you need to acquire this one, but we happily corrected several annoying errors and added some new and useful references.
One day, perhaps, there will be a Volume 2 with new inscriptions (I have a few in mind already), but God only knows when or even whether that will happen.
