What reading level is Literary And Social Silhouettes: [portr.] book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The aristocracy of cult- ure is, in the land of the Teutons, a very much greater power than we, on this side of the Atlantic, imagine ; and the Philis- tine, accordingly, is a trifle more modest and makes less noise.
If we would see the Philistine full- blown in the flower of his perfection, we must cross to the British Isles. There he rules not only the wave but the dry land as well ; and makes life as uncomfortable as possible for every one who is disposed to find fault with him. With all due... regard for the many grand spirits which Great Britain has produced, I doubt if any truer verdict could be passed upon the nation, d by Google as a whole, than that of Matthew Arnold: " An upper class materialized, a middle class vulgarized, a lower class brutalized.'.' That means, in other words, that (with some illustrious exceptions, who serve but to prove the rule) the whole nation is Philistine, though in varying degrees.
Let any one who wishes to convince himself of this fact read the lives of the English poets.
