What reading level is Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ephrem, St. Eucher, St. Paulinus, and Sulpicius Severus.
Of a certain more odious and ill-smelling kind of pedantry Sainte-Beuve was never guilty: he never tried to show, by the facile use of the cant terms of scholarship, that he was up with the very latest literature on a subject. He did not give undue preference to the most recent or the most diffictilt book, nor flaunt in his reader's face the last trivial discovery. The self-complacency, the scorn of others, the chicanery over novelties an...d trifles, which are not infrequent among philologists of the second rank, he was miles above, though no man could be more punctilious about details.
To have done once for all with objections of this sort, it may be remarked that, with all 311 SAINTE-BEUVE good will, most readers must find some of the digressions in the first volume arbitrary and tedious. There is an analysis of Comeille's Polyeucie which would be a good exercise for a class in rhetoric, but is entirely out of place in a history of Port-Royal.
