What reading level is Problems in Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The imagi- nation is limited to these two forms ; the assertion of a third form in and among the facts of the world is pro- foundly unintelligible. No such term is known in human experience either among measurable or minute things.
We have not only created our facts, we have given them an incomprehensible form, as much so as if we had spoken of matter without locality. These alleged facts, therefore, can subserve no purpose of explanation, as they are intel- ligible neither within themselves no...r in their relations to the valid terms of experience. We have in these statements a remarkable example of the power of the mind to project a shadow beyond the region of shadows, and to use a purely verbal term as if it were a real one.
If what has now been said is understood, we have no occasion to proceed any farther in this direction. Uncon- scious intelligence is inconceivable and unverifiable, and therefore profoundly unserviceable and unphilosophical.
It implies a state beyond all the known forms of experi- ence, an unintelligible state, and shares to the full this unintelligibilit)\ I have now for long striven, with little success, to enforce the true nature of consciousness.
