What reading level is Fankwei, Or, the San Jacinto in the Seas of India, China, And Japan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The wife of a great-grand-son of Seu- Kwaag-ke, took a vow of widowhood, devoted herself to her son and her husband's mother, and lived a widow for more than forty years, earning for herself the title of " an inimitable pattern of constancy and filial piety." Seven other ladies of this great family, coming down to the wife of the great-great-grand-son of the grand-son of Kwang-ke, were celebrated in the annals of Shanghae for the longevity of their widowhood, secondary wives joining with primar...y in earning this honor.
The facts of the foregoing short biography of the great privy councillor, embody many interesting points of Chi- nese history, and suggest many interesting reflections upon the fluctuating fate of Christianity in this empire.
They present, too, an insight into the capacity of the Chinese mind for scientific investigation. That a higher ISEAEL IN CHINA. 349 national cultivation has not, in the course of so much time, resulted from the influence of such a man, may be, at least in part, attributed to the fatal union of knowledge and sci- entific trvith with a false, a worldly and ambitious sectari- anism.
