What reading level is Lectures On the Philosophy of the Human Mind 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
scarcely pass beyond indifference ; and should as little look with affection on all mankind, in consequence of the pleasure which has attended our intimacy with a few — ^if affection be in it- self foreign to our nature, and the result of factitious circumstan- ces, — as we should look with a covetous eye on every walking stick, because we should feel sorrow, far beyond its intrinsic worth, on the loss of our own. If, indeed, man be naturally more pre- dous to our affection than the paltry baub...les of a toyshop, we may suppose, in his case, a more extensive diffusion of every feeling of regard. But.to ascribe to man any original title to our love, inde- pendent of the use which we may learn to derive from * him, as from a machine that may be instrumental to our convenience, would be to abandon the very principle on which the whole strange system of moral selfishness is founded.
Even as a theory, then, of mere affection, the selfish theory is inadequate. But however widely affection may be su|>posed to be spread, in consequence of the association and read}' suggestion of pleasures received from a few individuab only — though it were VOL.
