What reading level is Essays Biographical And Chemical book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1740, at the age of twelve, he was sent to school in Belfast ; and like many other boys of the north of Ireland, he crossed to Glasgow to attend its University, for in those days, of course, Queen's College, Belfast, had not been founded. This was in the year 1746. Dr. Robison mentions letters from Mr. Black to his son Joseph, from which it would appear that he was in every respect a satisfactory son and a diligent student. He received a general education ; we find, at least, that he could w...rite good Latin ; and he was taught ethics by Adam Smith. His leanings for natural science, however, were probably encouraged by his intimate friendship with the son of the Professor of Natural Philosophy, Dr. Robert Dick, later successor to his father in the chair, who, un- fortunately, occupied it only a few years, for he was early cut off by death. Black also owed much to Cullen, of whom a very interesting account is given by Thomas Thomson in his History. Cullen was Lecturer in Chemistry in the University of Glasgow from 1746 to 1756 ; and in' 1751 he was appointed Professor of Medicine; at that time, and, indeed, until Thomas Thomson taught chemistry, that subject was taught only by a lecturer.
