Prince Pierre of Monaco Foundation - Press Release No. 6

In 2015, when the Founding Members first created the Monaco Philosophical Meetings, they had the idea of awarding a Prize, not for a publication but for philosophical work developed over a long period, for which the author deserved to be recognised at both the national and international levels.  This idea never left them.  Therefore, on 8 June 2017, at the closing evening of the Annual Symposium on Philosophy at the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco, Jean-Claude Milner was awarded the first ever Principality's Prize for the whole of his philosophical, linguistic and political writings.  From now on, this will become a tradition.

The Founding Members of the Monaco Philosophical Meetings and the Prince Pierre Foundation jointly undertake to award this prize each year to an author for his or her entire philosophical work.  This will be recognition for a lifetime of writing in philosophy or an outstanding work that has opened up new avenues in the field of philosophy and has taken different approaches to science, politics, theology, history, anthropology, ethics or psychoanalysis.

The Prince Pierre of Monaco Foundation Prizewinners will be announced

on Thursday 4 October 2018, at 8 p.m., in the Salle Garnier

(Admission free subject to the availability of seats)
