What reading level is Russia And the Russians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The public education of the country also underwent improve- ment. In 1863 the universities were declared independent; in 1864 "real" schools, introducing German educational ideas, were added to the classical schools of the empire. Special provision was also made for the education of women.
We shall see later something of the reaction which came from the generous temper that inspired the Emancipation Act. In some directions, never- theless, the effect of the decree was lasting and, on the whole,... beneficial. Its moral value has never been seriously disputed. The economical results secured by the measure are unquestionable. By removing the artificial conditions which placed an immense body of unpaid labor at the disposal of agriculture, emancipation forced the landlords to a degree of effort and enterprise the necessity of which they had never felt during serfdom. By 138 RUSSIA AND THE RUSSIANS throwing the land open to free purchase, the act removed the temptation to spend upon unproductive or poorly productive lands the capital which should be devoted to other forms of industry, at the same time that it operated to advance Eussia from the stage of ownership by the commune to the stage of private ownership.
