To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In short, whatever ultimate supremacy we may accord to the things of the spirit, we must recognise that there is a more simple and material ideal to which normal youth owes a natural and even aesthetic homage, in its place and hour. Apollo, the god of light and purity, was also the god of the gymnasium; and it is to the young athlete in the palaestra that he gives the answer to the question which the poet-philo- sopher asks — *My body at its best — how far can it project my soul on its lone way...?' It was a dart of the slighted Apollo which wrung from the poet- ascetic St Francis the warning and the confession : 'We must needs use great discretion in the way we treat our brother the body, if we would not have it excite in us a storm of melancholy. ' The slay- ing of Goliath, therefore, is a necessary initial adventure in the adolescent quest. The thick skull of Goliath, that has to be broken, is the thought- killing crust of custom, that seeks to harden itself around the soul of every adolescent as he comes to his years of decision.
