Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Pilgrimage: Historical, Current and Future Directions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781800793651)

Heather A. Warfield is Associate Professor of Counseling, Psychology & Therapy at Antioch University New England. She received her Ph.D. from North Carolina State University in 2013 and, prior to moving to New Hampshire, taught at the University of Southern Queensland in Australia. Dr. Warfield's research is broadly aimed at exploring the psychological and therapeutic dimensions of pilgrimage journeys. Over the past two years, her investigative focus has narrowed to the historical and contemporary pilgrimages to the Western Front of World War I. During 2022-2023, she is a Fulbright Scholar at the Université de Lille and her research examines post-WWI pilgrimages to Belleau, France. She is the project director for the Yankee Division Virtual Pilgrimage, funded by New Hampshire Humanities and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In addition, she is a member of Ruines de guerre and an affiliated researcher of the Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion at the Université de Lille. Dr. Warfield is the series editor of Pilgrimage Studies.
