The era after World War II saw America's urban planners treat the lives of city-dwellers with disdain. It spawned a philosophy of urban renewal that valued the efficient movement of cars more than it valued the lives of people, and that wiped out entire neighborhoods dismissed by bureaucrats as slums. Published in 1961, Jane Jacobs's The Death and Life of Great American Cities examines the shortsightedness and failure of this philosophy. The book turns away from strict statistical study and abstract planning theory in favor of observations.

「ポルノ」という言葉はすっかり定着して日本語となり、性的な表現物を指すうえで最適な言葉として使用されるようになりました。もともとはpornographyという英語が、ポルノグラフィーと発音されて使われていたものが、省略されて「ポルノ」となったのです。この言葉はラテン語の「娼婦についての描写」が語源で、それが19世紀ころから「わいせつな表現物」という意味で使われるようになりました。そのなかでも、特に「性的な刺激と興奮を追求するもので、人間のセックス・ファンタジー、性的な幻想」を意味したのです。本書では、そのポルノを用いて英語に親しもうと提案しています。英語の読解力を身につけるためにポルノが最適なのは、ポルノの目的なり効能が明白なので、読む側もそれに合わせて対処すればいいからです。ポルノの読みどころは、そのホット・パートにあります。そういったパートを見つけるのはそれほど難しいことではありません。短い会話が増え、’Ahh~’とか’Ohh~’といった感嘆詞が出てくれば、そこがまさにホット・パートです。本商品では、英文ポルノを読む聴く手助けとなる方法をいろいろ解説しています。英語は難しいと決めてかからないで下さい。英語を読む楽しさ聴く楽しさを感じ、本商品を聴き終わったあと、今度は原書を読んでみたいと思っていただけたら、それにまさる喜びはありません。 ※...
