What reading level is Music, Its Laws And Evolution book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a simple contribution that he offers us. What he wishes to explain is the greatly dis- turbing effect of the language of sounds ; and, on this account, his thoughts should be welcomed in a sociological study of the musical art, since the feelings of which, according to him, melody is the expression, presuppose the existence of a society. The social point of view is not the artistic one, but it compels us to reckon with certain facts, even if some.error be mingled with it. We cannot refuse... to birds the title of " singers," since it has been awarded them by all the ancient poets. They have even been regarded as masters. Athenseus says that the poet Alcman studied under them. Lucretius asserted that man imitated them before he knew how to speak. One of the popular songs in Languedoc commences thus — Roussignolet du bois, Roussiguolet salvage, Apprends-moi ton langage ! M. Zaborowski, the author of a httle book on lan- guage, has had the curiosity to collect the names of a certain number of birds in the most diverse languages and dialects, both savage and civilized ; and this curious nomenclature shows that aU these names contain imitative harmony and are veritable onomatopoeias, implying the observation and imita- tion of animals by man.
