Richard Fishacre

Richard Fishacre (c1204-1248) was the first Dominican master at Oxford to be educated exclusively in England. He was a student at the first Oxford Blackfriars, taught by Robert Bacon, the first Dominican master in theology, and probably incepted around 1240. He lectured with Bacon, although whether this was at the same venue or not is uncertain.
