M. C. Dillon Memorial Lecture Martin (Mike) Dillon (1938-2005) was the founding General Secretary of the Merleau-Ponty Circle and Distinguished Teaching Professor at Binghamton University. His Merleau-Ponty's Ontology is a lasting contribution to Merleau-Ponty scholarship and rendered him a leading voice in contemporary phenomenology. The annual fall conference of the International Merleau-Ponty Circle features the M. C. Dillon Memorial Lecture, an honor and monetary award of $500 for the best graduate student submission. Recipients of the M.C. Dillon Memorial Lecture award will have their papers published in Chiasmi International: Trilingual Studies concerning the Thought of Merleau-Ponty. Graduate students who wish to be considered for the Dillon prize should indicate this in their cover letter when submitting their paper for consideration for the fall conference program. |
