Country People Know Best | Episode 5

<p>What does it mean to truly belong to the land — and what do we lose when that connection is severed? </p><p>Sebastian Morello, philosopher at St. Mary&#39;s University in London and author of <em>Woodland Philosophy: Meditations on Hunting, Hiking and Holiness</em>, joins Dr. Samuel Shephard to explore what it means to be a country person in an age of urban disconnection. Drawing on his Catholic faith, his grandfather&#39;s stalking knives, and years of managing the landscape, Sebastian makes the case that country people possess a kind of embodied, irreplaceable knowledge — and that Westminster&#39;s constant interference is quietly destroying the very countryside it claims to protect.</p><p>Woodland Philosophy is available wherever books are sold.</p>
