Mark Csikszentmihalyi, Professor and Eliaser Chair of International Studies, has an AB in East Asian Languages and Civilizations (Harvard) and a Ph.D in Asian Languages (Stanford). He uses both excavated and transmitted texts to reconstruct the religions, philosophies, and cultures of early China, while, at the same time, trying to provincialize such "universal" categories. His most recent book is Confucius: A New Tradition (Reaktion Books, 2026). He is editor of Early China.
