What reading level is Lectures On the Philosophy of History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
II. THE MIDDLE AGES. 389 conscience. In the eleventh century, the fear of the ap- proaching final judgment and the belief in the speedy disso- lution of the world, spread through all Europe. This dis* may of soul impelled men to the most irrational proceedings. Some bestowed the whole of their possessions on the Church, and passed their lives in continual penance ; the majority dissipated their worldly all in riotous debauchery. The Church alone increased its riches by the hallucinatioii, throu...gh donations and bequests. About the same time too, terrible famines swept away their victims : human flesh was sold in open market. During this state of things, lawlessness, brutal lust, the most barbarous caprice, deceit and cunning, were the prevailing moral features. Italy, the centre of Christendom, presented the most revolting aspect. Every virtue was alien to the times in question ; consequently virtus had lost its proper meaning : in common use it denoted only violence and oppression, sometimes even libidinous outrage.
