New Series: Anthem Series in Ancient East-West Philosophy

Anthem Press has just established a new, exciting series in Ancient Philosophy, East and West. This is a brief description of the Series and its main aims:

Anthem Series in Ancient East-West Philosophy

(Ancient Greek philosophy, Indian philosophy, Buddhist philosophy, Arabic philosophy, Chinese philosophy, Comparative philosophy)

The book series aims to make exciting, innovative studies in ancient comparative philosophy (written by younger and more experienced academics) available to undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as to scholars. Key themes in this series will be ancient philosophy, that is, ancient Greek, Buddhist, Chinese and Arabic philosophies, researched and assessed both on their own terms and comparatively (in relation to each other as well as to contemporary philosophy).

There would be two main kinds of volumes in the series: introductions and studies.

Introductions will be around 50k at maximum (although in some cases they may be longer if dealing with different philosophical traditions at the same time) and will be aimed at scholars and students wishing to read accessible accounts of the main philosophical traditions of antiquity. Studies will be around 70-100k and will provide more systematic coverage of key-topics and authors in ancient philosophical traditions, again in one of them or comparatively.

Please contact the series editor, Ugo Zilioli (Faculty of Theology and Religion / Oxford Network Ancient Philosophy), if you need further information/want to discuss a proposal/wish to send in a formal proposal: ugo_zilioli@yahoo.co.uk
