Henry Stewart Macran (1867–1937) was an Irish philosopher and internationally recognized scholar of Hegel's philosophy at Trinity College Dublin.[1]

Life and works

Macran was an undergraduate during 1882–1886, he became a fellow in 1892 and subsequently professor of moral philosophy (1901–1934) and history of philosophy (1934–1937) at Trinity College Dublin.[1] He was also Trinity College's senior dean from 1931 to 1935 and from 1936 to 1937.[2] In 1941 a Henry Stewart Macran Prize was named in his memory, for graduate students who write the best examination on Hegel's system of philosophy and an essay ‘on a subject of a metaphysical or ethical and not merely psychological or logical character’.[3]
