To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These studies will open up to you sources of amusement which, I think r may say, will often rise into happiness. I wish you, by the aid of the training which I recommend, to be able to look beyond your own lives and have pleasure in surroundings different from those in which you move. I want you to be able — and mark this point — ^to sympathize with other times, to be able to understand the men and women of other countries, and to have the intense enjoyment — an enjoyment which I am sure you wo...uld all appreciate — of mental change of scene. I do not only want you to know dry facts; I am not only looking to a knowledge of facts, nor chiefly to that knowledge. I want the heart to be stirred as well as the intellect. I want you to feel more and live more than you can do if you only know what surrounds yourselves. I want the action of the imagination, the sympathetic study of history and travels, the broad teaching of the poets, and, in- deed, of the best writers of other times and other countries, to neutralize and check the dwarfing influences of necessarily narrow careers and necessarily stunted lives.
