To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
standiftg everything with which his age had endowed him, he had all the characteristivjs of those exceptional beings who -owe to circumstances nothing but the opportunity for the free development of their extraordinary faculties.; , He was one of those men who derive theii^ existence and th^ir greatness from themselves alone, prolem sine matre creatam ; and the day on which he finished his long and glorious career, his whole self 4ied with him. " My knowledge," he himself said, " wUl give birth... to a tribe of know-nothings ;'' and it would be un- fair to hold him responsible ior the extravagances of his impotent successors, who fancied that they/svere imitatijig him in their affectation of the sublime, fbrgettihg that without i'orce, audacity is only ridiculous. It is. nbt alone by., the creative might of his all-powerful imagination, but .by an Ainparalleled combination of the highest and raresst. faculties, that he towers above the most celebrated men of that age of prodigies. Painter, sculptor,, architect, engineer, poet, citizen, he stands forth among Dante, Leonardo, Brunelleschi, Raphael, like a Titan, the last- surviving scion of a perished race, lordly commander of that army of giants.
