What reading level is Morale And Its Enemies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This common interest, and all common interests, must be enacted. The fundamental social fact is the enactor; and that being, in developed societies, is the State.
3. The State so far appears as a servant, but a necessary servant, of the most vital of our practical interests. It creates the world, not alone the world in which we wish to think but also the world in which we wish to act. Having a natural immortality, as we individuals have not, it confers a durability upon our deeds that otherwise... they would lack; it cannot make our souls immortal, but it can approach another kind of immortality which to not a few minds has seemed more desirable, an immortality of work, and in rare cases of one's name and mem- ory. To speak within wholly literal bounds, the State lends its longest dimension to the work of every honest worker ; and if we cannot say that this work can, by any earthly agency, be made eternal, it may at least be saved from being merely local and passing. Apart from the State, human experience would be a perpetual recurrence of ancient mistakes ; with the State, even the errors and failures of men contribute to the total advance, since they make those failures evident to those that follow.
