What reading level is Congress of Arts And Science : Universal Exposition, St. Louis, 1904 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is the arts which fix the transitory element of the sense-image, hold fast the fleeting, make immortal the perishable, and lend stability and permanence to all pleasure that is bound up with perception. What does painting accomplish? Arisen, as it has, out of the demands of the eye, its sole task is to gain for the undefined form- and color-impressions of reality a complete and stable existence. The same thing is true of the other arts, for their respective sense-impressions.
To sum up: If t
...he transformation of reality is acknowledged as a fundamental principle of art, it is also to be grdfnted that this takes place in two directions: — art is something at once more and less than nature. Inasmuch as art pushes on to the vraie verite, and at the same time disregards all that is not of the nature of semblance or image, we take from it ideas whose quality enthralls and stimu- lates us quite independently of their meaning. Art shows us the hidden essence of the world and of life and at the same time the outsides of things created for our pleasure; that is, the objects' pure psychical value in the field of sense.
