The Editorial Committee of the International Plato Society (Francesco Fronterotta, Filip Karfik, Claudia Marsico, Laetitia Monteils-Laeng, Thomas M. Tuozzo) has chosen the winner of the 3rd Edition of Conrado Eggers Lan Prize.
The edition was a very successful one. The IPS received 20 submissions of dissertations that had resulted in the award of the Ph.D. degree between July 31, 2018, and July 31, 2021.
We are pleased to announce that the winner of the prize is: Julia Pfefferkorn: Platons tanzende Stadt: Moralpsychologie und Chortanz in den Nomoi, a PhD Dissertation completed in 2020 en cotutelle at the Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen and the Università degli studi di Salerno under the supervision of Irmgard Männlein-Robert and Franco Ferrari.
The Editorial Committee would also like to recognise the excellence of the dissertation written by Roberto Granieri: Being as a Kind in Plato’s Sophist, completed in 2021 at the University of Toronto and supervised by Lloyd Gerson.
The Editorial Committee appreciates the high scientific quality of all submissions received. We are happy to say that studies on Plato thrive worldwide. Our thanks go to all the applicants and their supervisors.
On behalf of the Editorial Committee
Yours sincerely,
Filip Karfik
