Rogers Prize

The Rogers Prize was established in 2011 in honour of the work of John Rogers (1938-2022), the founding editor of the British Journal for the History of Philosophy, who retired that year after 18 years as editor. The Prize of £1000, funded by the BSHP, is awarded each year for the best article published in the BJHP in the previous twelve months, judged by a committee composed of the Editor and Associate Editors of the journal.
