What reading level is Origin, Progress And Destiny of the English Language And Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To honor that venerable record we make its closing paragraph the Extract for one of our Tables in this century.
Anglo-Saxon ceased to be a written language, A.D. 1154, when all the intellect of England, as we have shown, expressed itself in elegant Latin ; but this was an eccentric and unnatural ten- dency, that could only be temporary, because the nation spoke Anglo-Saxon and would use no other language. Of course in time the 2,000,000 Anglo-Saxons might adapt their idiom to some other suitabl...e linguistic element to form a language that would suit the governing and the governed. Whither could Eng- land look for the elements of the language she required ? To the Gothic races in Scandinavia, to the nations of Germany? Neither of these had a language and literature ; they had but just emerged from wild and barbarous ideas of Woden, Balder, and Valhalla.
England could not look to her immediate Celtic neighbors for a linguistic element to combine with Anglo-Saxon ; for most of 204 Anglo-Saxon Period, A.D.
