What reading level is Eminent Authors of the Nineteenth Century. Literary Portraits book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Sphinx and the Chimera, science and poetry, desire each other in him, seek each other again and again, circle about each other with passionate yearning and ardor ; but the true impregnation of poetry through science he did not accomplish.
Not that his principle was unsound or incorrect. On the contrary, the future of poetry is embodied in it ; this I most truly believe, for in it was its past. The greatest poets, an ^s- chylus, a Dante, a Shakespeare, a Goethe, possessed all the essential k...nowledge of their day, and deposited it in their poetry. True, erudition and scientific culture, in and for themselves, have no poetic value. They can never in the world take the place of poetic sentiment and artistic creative power. When the poetic endowment, however, exists, the gaze is sharpened by an acquaintance with the laws of na- ture and the human soul, and expanded by the study of history. In our day, when modem science is reconstructed in every direction, however, it is undoubtedly far more diffi- cult than ever to span the materials of science without being overwhelmed, and Flaubert did not possess that native har- mony of spirit which renders difficult things easy, and recon- ciles the profound antitheses of the world of ideas.
