symptomatic は symptom の形容詞形，(be) symptomatic of ～で「～を示して」の意味です。 「気持ちを表していた」 a state of mind「気持ち」を関係代名詞 that 以下が修飾。 「そうでなければ表れていない，無意識の行動の具体的なイメージとなって現れた気持ち」 otherwise inaccessible は関係代名詞 that が表す a state of mind の説明。 あくまでも関係代名詞節内で説明していますので， Otherwise inaccessible, symptomatic of a state of mind ～とはできません。 ― は通常，前に書かれた内容の言い換え，あるいは補足説明です。 ここでは that manifested と過去形になっていますので，it was neglected の説明でしょう。 「家がなおざりにされていた。このことは，そうでなければ表れていない，無意識の行動の具体的なイメージとなって現れた気持ちを示している」 it was neglected の部分は only to the extent that につながっていきますので，日本語できちんと訳そうと思うと骨が折れます。 英語というのは，どんどんと後ろへ伸びていくので，英語のまま理解していってください。

if only to the extent that it was neglected 「たとえ、それ（家）がなおざりにされていた程度だけだとしても」 過去に家のことを軽視していた。 その程度はどれくらいか、これだけではわかりません。 そして、今は重要に思っている。 といっても、大いにというわけではなく、せいぜい、それまで軽視していたのと同じ程度。 軽視・重要視と方向は逆ですが、その絶対値は同じ程度ということです。 otherwise については後ほど。

A otherwise　Bと考えるとB＝inaccessible、Aは何かということですが A=neglectedでしょう。ただ、neglectの内容がよく解りません。 忘却するか、接近を拒絶するかという、心理的な症状のことのようです。

  • 下の英語の文章を訳して下さい。

    Professor William Kingston of Trinity College, Dublin claimed, "There's no doubt at all about it that the Royal Navy and the British government have taken very considerable steps over the years to try to prevent whatever can be found out about the Lusitania". The wreck of Lusitania lies on its starboard side at an approximately 30-degree angle in roughly 305 feet (93 m) of water, 11 miles (18 km) south of the lighthouse at Kinsale. The wreck is badly collapsed onto its starboard side, due to the force with which it struck the bottom coupled with the forces of winter tides and corrosion in the decades since the sinking. The keel has an "unusual curvature" which may be related to a lack of strength from the loss of its superstructure. The beam is reduced with the funnels missing presumably due to deterioration. The bow is the most prominent portion of the wreck with the stern damaged by depth charges. Three of the four propellers were removed by Oceaneering International in 1982. Expeditions to Lusitania have shown that the ship has deteriorated much faster than Titanic has, being in a depth of 305 feet (93 m) of water. When contrasted with her contemporary, Titanic (resting at a depth of 12,000 feet (3,700 m)), Lusitania appears in a much more deteriorated state due to the presence of fishing nets lying on the wreckage, the blasting of the wreck with depth charges and multiple salvage operations. As a result, the wreck is unstable and may at some point completely collapse. There has been recent academic commentary exploring the possibility of listing the wreck site as a World Heritage Site under the World Heritage Convention, although challenges remain in terms of ownership and preventing further deterioration of the wreck. Between 1931 and 1935, an American syndicate comprising Simon Lake, one of the chief inventors of the modern submarine, and a US Navy officer, Captain H.H. Railey, negotiated a contract with the British Admiralty and other British authorities to partially salvage Lusitania. The means of salvage was unique in that a 200-foot (61 m) steel tube, five feet in diameter, which enclosed stairs, and a dive chamber at the bottom would be floated out over the Lusitania wreck and then sunk upright, with the dive chamber resting on the main deck of Lusitania. Divers would then take the stairs down to the dive chamber and then go out of the chamber to the deck of Lusitania. Lake's primary business goals were to salvage the purser's safe and any items of historical value. It was not to be though, and in Simon Lake's own words, "... but my hands were too full"—i.e. Lake's company was having financial difficulties at the time—and the contract with British authorities expired 31 December 1935 without any salvage work being done, even though his unique salvage tunnel had been built and tested.

That allowed sand a gift -a copper beer mug- to 130 people in all, including colleagues in his company, business associates and his private golfing friends. Now, two months after the dreamlike episode, he says: ‘’ It was a really happy event. But I find the custom a little strange. I’ve heard that some people even try to hide the fact that they scored an ace for fear of the consequences. That’s a great shame considering that a hole in one is like a miracle that golfers should be very proud of.’’

    Do states limit their use of violence to legitimate purposes? という質問があり、答えになりそうな文章を抜き出しました。 But no state always confines itself only to legitimate violence. More precisely, the government of the state is made up of individuals, and inevitably some of those individuals, in seeking their political ends, will employ violence outside the bounds of the rules. つまり「国家は常に合法的な暴力だけに限られている」ということですよね？ ということは答えは「Yes」でいいのでしょうか？ Yes, no state always confines itself only to legitimate violence. こちらの回答でいいでしょうか？ よろしくお願いします。
