Description
Book Introduction
What are the humanities of the forest?
This book is a critique of forest interpretations under the name of 'Forest Humanities' and shows why we should study forests.
Forest humanities should not be about regurgitating misinformation by regurgitating natural stories from history, mythology, art, and philosophy, but rather about delving deeper into the lives of forest creatures and gaining insight into our own lives.
The biggest obstacle at this time is misinformation.
This book aims to uncover misinformation and unknown stories about trees through 100 questions.

Into the book
A year-long study of a single oak tree revealed that over 100 species of animals live there.
(…) One tree can be said to be a small ecosystem.
--- p.23
A tree that is 300 years old has died by year 299, and only the body born this year is still alive.
Dead tissue that has accumulated over hundreds of years inside the tree holds firmly in place and supports the living parts.
--- p.41
Come to think of it, caterpillars are an indispensable part of the world.
Trees know this too, so they produce 10 to 20 percent more leaves than they need.
It can be interpreted as something made for caterpillars to eat.
Trees, with their long experience, deal with beings that torment them with composure.
--- p.61
If they could have made their leaves wider like broadleaf trees to increase photosynthesis, why did they go out of their way to make thin, pointed leaves?
--- p.90
Even the stones on the roadside that we step on without thinking are hundreds of millions of years old.
If you know it, it's valuable, if you don't know it, it's useless.
The beauty, joy, and happiness we encounter are no different.
--- p.137
'Real trees' are desirable to humans because of their benefits.
In times like these, isn't uselessness even more necessary?
--- p.169
It's fascinating how opposite lifestyles can ultimately achieve the same goal.
How could this apply only to flowers? This must be the case for all things in the world.
There is no need to be anxious about being different from others.
--- p.183
Camellia trees can survive salty weather and live on the coast thanks to this waxy layer.
Even seemingly trivial things have a reason.
--- p.209
There is a story that the pillars of famous temples such as Buseoksa, Magoksa, and Hwaeomsa were made of sari.
(…) The sari will never envy the zelkova tree.
Because living small and thin is my life.

Publisher's Review
100 Things You Didn't Know About Trees
As the humanities faced a crisis due to materialistic bias and the marketization of educational institutions, the popularization of the humanities occurred as a countermeasure.
However, the popularization of the humanities has the potential to reduce them to a means of making money or even cause them to lose their identity.
The same thing happens in forest commentary.
The lectures, titled 'Humanities of the Forest' and 'Humanistic Forest Interpretation', mostly feature stories about nature that appear in history, mythology, works of art, and philosophy.
So, the forest commentary says, 'Peonies have no fragrance' and that the fruit is placed on the table and called 'Sangsuri Tree'.
They reproduce and amplify misinformation in the name of forest humanities.
Can this really be called the ‘humanities of the forest’?
The reason we must study the humanities is to find answers to the question of how we humans can live joyful and happy lives.
To do that, you need to have ‘insight.’
We study humanities to gain insight into life.
So what is the humanities of the forest? When I looked inside the forest, I saw creatures coexisting in various ways, relying on one another. They, too, lived with wisdom and intensity. There was much to learn from them… This is the humanities of the forest.
The biggest obstacle at this time is misinformation.
This book aims to uncover misinformation and unknown stories about trees through 100 questions.
It also contains a lot of content answering questions children ask.
Even experts are often left speechless by children's quirky questions.
When I explain that “pine trees are called coniferous trees because their leaves are sharp like needles,” children immediately ask, “Why are they sharp?”
