What reading level is Oscar Wilde book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
17 artist. ' " ' His place/ he says with later renaissance bUtheness, ' is with the poets ' ; and thus the greatest spiritual influence in the world is. Beautifully and insolently relegated ta the exclusive poetical coterie of Shelley and Sophocles and Oscar Wilde !
" Surely in the whole history of literature no ' confessions' ever con- tained so proud and wilful a self- justification as this attempt to justify an unordered Epicureanism — the deca- dent philosophy of Wilde — by an appeal to the... spirit of the Gospels ! With its clear, rythmic language, its strong union of thought and feeling, its direct appeal to the sense of the beautiful, this little book claims to be ranked as great literature. But its author is one whom Plato would have sent on crowned and garlanded to another city. He has pro- claimed that the undisciplined life waa good. He writes in no chastened spirit of submission, but with a cry of self- approval and triumph. Not content ta say ' Evil, be thou my Good, ' he has the daring to make even the gods his.
