C5. Peacemakers and their Religious Traditions

Instructor: Kathleen Fisher has taught at WISE since 2019, offering courses on The Gnostic Gospels, Celtic Spirituality, the poet Mary Oliver, and the mystics Rumi and St. Francis. She holds a Ph.D. in Medieval History and Religion from Boston University where she focused on Irish history and medieval monasticism. “Peacemakers and their Religious Traditions” arose from her interest and teaching experience in world religions and issues of social justice. Recently retired from a long teaching career in Theology at Assumption University, Kathleen now lives in Chapel Hill, NC.
