What reading level is Modern Essays Reprinted From Leading Articles in the Times book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That might have been a righteous punish- ment of the Greeks themselves ; but, worse than that, 117 Modern Essays the moral ideas of the great age were wasted Hke water spilt in the desert. For centuries no society was gov- erned by exalted hopes or aims ; the individual was left to find what faith he could out of his own private experience of life ; and the change is expressed with melancholy grandeur in the words of one who ruled the world and yet despaired of it : — " The poet hath said, Dear... city of Cecrops ; and shall I not say, Dear city of God ? " The chief interest for us in the meditations of Marcus Aurelius is that they express the faith of a man for whom hope of all kinds had been reduced to a mini- mum. It may be that in a few generations our de- scendants will have to undergo the ordeal through which he passed. It is true that they will know more about the material facts of life than he knew, but we cannot be sure that their greater knowledge will give them greater hope.
