Having graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Carleton College\, Professor LaFleur received his doctorate from The University of Chicago’s John U. Nef Committee on Social Thought\, where he combined work in three distinct fields: anthropology\, history\, and Chinese literature.\nProfessor LaFleur’s current work combines historical research using Chinese\, Japanese\, and Korean sources with anthropological fieldwork on each of China’s five sacred mountains. He is also doing research for an intellectual biography of Marcel Granet\, a French scholar of China.\nProfessor LaFleur received the Charles S. Bassett Teaching Award from Colby College in 1998\, as well as the James R. Underkofler Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching Award from Beloit College in 2001 and 2011.
