Father Dwight Longenecker returns to Merely Catholic for the tenth episode of the podcast series for the Catholic Herald, this time talking to Dr Gavin Ashenden about the English Catholic inheritance and what it means to both Britain and the world in the early 21st century.

In this fascinating conversation, Father Longenecker, fresh from a pilgrimage tour of England, offers the perspective of both an American and a former Anglican on the role and significance of the English martyrs and upon a distinguished Catholic literary tradition which includes such figures as Robert Hugh Benson, Evelyn Waugh, GK Chesterton, Grahame Greene, JRR Tolkien and Elizabeth Jennings. English Catholics, he says, should do more to treasure and conserve the riches that have been left to them.
