Warring States Project
Editorial

Here are the texts of Project publications in various states of active prepapration. This section of the site is NOT open to the public; it is exclusively for the use of our Editors and Advisors. As an item is completed, its Contents page, with sample articles or chapters, will appear on the Orders page.

Proofreading is in the hands of our Copy Editor. We ask that our Advisors help us answer two larger questions about works in progress: (1) Are there previous studies that should be acknowledged? and, (2) Are there errors of fact or argument that should be corrected?

In Preparation. Advisor comments are especially welcome.

From Confucius to the Empire: An Ethic of Service (in final editing; expected mid 2024)
King David: Sacred vs Secular in Biblical Times (in process; expected 2024)
Spring and Autumn: A Chinese Military Revolution (expected early 2025)
Homer and Others: Enjoying the Odyssey (expected late 2025)
Chinese Poems: Glimpses of a Virtuoso Tradition (in final editing)
Arts of War: Classical Chinese Military Thought (in preparation)

Warring States Papers v2 (near final; expected 2024)
Alpha v2 (in final editing, expected 2024)

Our Advisors change over time. We take this opportunity to express our thanks to all, past and present, who have assisted the publication program in this way.
