What reading level is Ireland And Poland, a Comparison book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Since 1873 German alone may be taught in the national schools. The language of instruction must be German wherever half the pupils are capable of un- derstanding it, and after 1928 it is decreed that no other language must be heard in the schoolroom. A decree of 1899 forbids teachers to use Polish even in their own family circles. Anyone who is caught teaching Polish, even gratuitously, is punished by fine or im- prisonment. Polish literature found in the houses of private persons is confiscate...d, and its possessors im- prisoned, if the police consider it to bear the least trace of any propagandist character. * All this, it will be seen, is merely the drastic execu- tion of the policy laid down by Treitschke, the prophet of modern Germany, and more recently urged by the most popular living representative of Prussian ideals, H. S. Chamberlain. "There is, " writes Chamberlain, ''no task before us so important as that of forcing the German language on the world (die deutsche Sprache der Welt aufzuzwingen.
