It is with much sadness that the Parkes Institute marks the death of Richard Harries (1936–2026), former Bishop of Oxford.
Here, Professor Tony Kushner reflects on his life, his relationship with James Parkes, & his lasting connection to the Institute.

In 2024, Richard Harries joined Professor Neil Gregor to discuss James Parkes & items from the James Parkes Collection @hartleyspecialc.bsky.social.
The conversation captures his deep knowledge of Parkes’s work and their shared commitment to Jewish-Christian dialogue.
