What reading level is Edmund Burke: a Historical Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
democrats could possibly - have been more complete than that which, by the end of the eighteenth century, had been efifected by the oligarchs. The Constitutional Society in the end was fully justified by the disasters of despotism in being willing to face the dangers of democwwjy. Burke, however, thought otherwise, as he thought twenty years afterwards.
" Our constitution," in his opinion, " staads . on a nice eq^uipoise, with steep precipices and deep waters upon all sides of it. In removing i...t from a dangerous leaning towards one side, there may be a risk of over- , setting it on the other." -^ This image was ever before his mind. It occurs again in the last sentence of that great protest against all change and movement, when he describes himself as one who, " when the equipoise of the vessel in which he sails may be endangered by overloading it upon one side, is desirouis of carrying the small weight of his reasons to that which may preserve its equipoise." 2 Yet, coidd the most bitter despiser of the constitution have devised a more damaging metaphor?
