What reading level is Nova Et Vetera: Informal Meditations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

What the lark does by instinct, the intellect does freely and intelligently, pouring itself out in ** useless " utterance ; because it is full and must unburden itself. Secondarily, such faculty of utterance is for the good of others, that the glad- ness may be not only uttered but imparted and multiplied. Primarily it is propter se — " for its own sake." The sun would shine as brightly were there no worlds around for it to warm or quicken. " I Digiti ized by Google THE END OF MAN. 3,^ only pip...e," says the poet, " because I must ; and sing but as the linnets sing.'* Associated praise is easier, intenser, more harmonic, less painfully con- scious of its own feebleness — all the difference between cheering with a crowd, and cheering alone, or cheering 'mid a hooting crowd. But to give every expression in our power to the joy that is within us is as imperative an instinct of the rational soul of man, as it is of the sensitive soul of the song-bird.
All the truest art the world has seen, has been stimulated if not purely and wholly, yet at least principally by this instinct of self-expression for its own sake; the desire to embody what we see and feel in words or actions or images, or lines or colours or marble or music — each according to that medium of expression in which he is skilled.
