What reading level is Pencraft a Plea for the Older Ways book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The excesses of Whitman-worship had disgusted him : I hazard the surmise that the later and more grotesque extravagances of the Blake cult can hardly have been much more truly to his taste. Blake, he has told us, in picturesque if somewhat con- torted language, " founded at mid- night " the " school " of poets which Coleridge " ratified at sundawn. " The chronology is loose, and the con- fraternity of totally independent poets to which Coleridge belonged was in no sense a school, while I greatl...y doubt if any of its members would for a moment have acknowledged Blake as the founder of their fellowship ; but the confident boldness of the statement, with its sonorous tone as of a pro- clamation, is grandiose and imposing. I am, however, inclined to think that, PENCRAFT 35 as a founder, a somewhat more tenable claim could be advanced for Blake in another if kindred field. He is the author of a proverb or apothegm " Damn braces, bless relaxes " which compels admiration for its pregnant succinctness, but on every other ground is as thoroughly bad, pernicious, and disintegrating in aesthetics as it is in ethics, and from which a whole school and theory of criticism may with some plausibility be alleged to have sprung.
