Sanctioned Violence

Got an email from Harmen Mesker in the Netherlands calling my attention to a book called Sanctioned Violence in Early China by Mark Edward Lewis. It looks very promising, as does another book by Lewis, Writing and Authority in Early China.

I haven't gotten them yet, but I find that I have better access to a great library, so I'm going to try to read both of them. Stay tuned.

Apparently a few people are following this! If you're one of Hilary's friends, then I've been taking classes and writing papers at a furious clip, and will be lurking on Clarity some more soon. The people at Clarity have been wonderfully good to me. Peace, y'all.
