print a book with the title A Brief History of ass was intended from the outset to provoke the curiosity and scandal. I do not know if that was the purpose of the writer Jean-Luc Henning when thinking. If Ramón Gómez de la Serna was able to write one with the title of Breast in 1917 and more recently Juan Manuel de Prada also dared to do with Pussy in 1994, it seems that just had to try it now with the hindquarters. And it can also give the impression that the book aims to provoke laughter from the reader and do not say that at any time you get it, though not the main purpose, because Brief History of ass is in itself a serious treatise on buttocks, if indeed the joyfulness of this part of the body may invite squandering.

To start moment on the number of phrases we use and refer to our buttocks: losing your ass, kiss my ass, break your ass, be an ass bad seat, have your eyes on your ass, kick ass, have the pleasure in the ass, be ugly like an ass, have an ass face, being a dumb ass, take the flower in the ass, etc ... It can be stated that so much and so rich and expressive lexical deserved a treaty. Now ask yourself why many of these expressions and phrases have a pejorative meaning. Perhaps it is that our thinking is colored the thinking of those who preceded us. The Christian religion considered the devil's ass face. During our human evolution we endeavored to hide this part of the body. We have also given an erotic meaning, whether we have become the back door copulation. Many of these stories are found in the book of Henning. Information and insurance issues that we have ever raised.

Brief History of ass is a treatise on our backsides. Talk about this part of our anatomy from many different perspectives: artistic, biological, historical, religious, advertising, etc ... You will find a true epitome of what matters referred assholes.

We will try to see some examples allusive. Illustrative is the very beginning of the book:

"The ass dates back to ancient times." (P.9). What absolute and universal truth. And from that beginning we follow him everywhere.

"Of the 193 living species of primates, only the human species has a hemispherical buttocks are permanently outgoing" (p.9)

turn found an interesting statement: "the man would have his ass origins in the eruption of the brain "(p.10)

Luther frightened the devil, because he had visions of him often, yelling: Suck my ass! (P.26) and in turn "the devil confessed to witches (and warlocks) their filthy sins of chastity and made besasen his anus as a gesture of homage "(p.27), including Rabelais" reportedly proposed to the high priest kiss the face from behind, provided they were well washed "(p.30).

During the sixteenth century one of the most cultivated literary genres was the erotic blazon, it could praise or denigrate as much as desired. Some of them are dedicated to that famous body part (p.35-41).

I will not dwell on more examples are illustrative and that surely every reader will discover and prefer to suit your taste.

At the end of the book happened to me a couple of objections to it that the reader can also be taken as advice. First, given the enormous amount of artistic reference tables have been a great idea that the book had been illustrated. Otherwise I recommend to the reader to take a computer, connect to the internet and take a tour of the artistic evolution of ass through the paint as found in the book the name of paintings and their authors. It will be a very interesting tour. Also, since the author's cultural universe is basically French, is missing an adaptation of the wording into Castilian. The signing this review has made a small initial effort that is sure to be completed easily by the reader.

Anyway, I can not think of a better reason to lose your ass to buy and read this treatise on the backside.
