What reading level is Jean Jacques Rousseau book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is never superfluous, therefore, to point out misunderstandings that are born again every day. Let us be permitted to as- sume this humble role.
A general criticism of Rousseau may be ranged under four heads: his talent, his character, his life and his ideas. This last point being that which ought es- pecially to occupy us, we shall ...touch on the other three only in passing and in or- der to note a few of those superficial views that are all too easily adopted by many persons.

"His style, " it says, "is wanting in naivete, calm, [57] easy grace, Attic irony; Rousseau is not Amyot, Bossuet, Sevigne, nor Voltaire. " No doubt, but he is Rousseau.
"He has many imperfections ; he abuses the exclamation, the apostrophe, the pro- sopopaeia; he indulges too much in hy- perbole, paradox, and does not shrink from sophistry.
