Harold E. Fleming Professor of Philosophy Dr. Kevin DeLapp was awarded the 2024 Dao Annual Best Essay Award for a recent paper, “Confucian Rituals and Aristotelian Habits.”

This is a competitive international recognition by the editorial board of Dao: A Journal of Comparative Philosophy, a top-tier Springer publication, of the essay they deem to be the most significant contribution of the year. In addition to a cash prize, Dr. DeLapp’s paper will be the subject of a dedicated panel session at the annual meeting of the American Philosophical Association, with subsequent publication of critical comments by leading scholars in the field and author replies.
