What reading level is An English Miscellany, Presented to Dr. Furnivall in Honour of His Seventy-Fifth Birthday book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His de- scriptions are picturesque; his personages, on the other hand, leave us uncertain whether we should know them if they suddenly came before us. In grasping the moral and social causes to which Christianity owed its triumph, he is far more suc- cessful. Yet, even here, when he traces the decline IN ST. PAUUS FOOTSTEPS 125 of Paganism, especially among the Greeks, he might have borrowed with advantage from Plu- tarch and Pausanias details, both light and sombre, which would have added to t...he somewhat low relief of too abstract a style.
Always by preference classic, and even, one may say. Catholic, as opposed to the Protestant of a fierce controversial type, Renan, who looked upon St. Paul as the father of Luther and Calvin, as a Hebrew in his very revolt from what was after- ward the Talmud, and as a theologian who justified the whole scheme of sin and redemption, could not forbear to exhibit the great Apostle in a crude light.
St. Paul's outward and inward man are to this worshipper of Apollo equally displeasing, and on the same ground, their lack of beautiful form.
