What reading level is Tennyson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We are fools and slight; We mock thee when we do not fear: But help thy foolish ones to bear; Help thy vain worlds to bear thy light.
CHAPTER III THE ANSWER TO MATERIALISM Not long after the publication of "In Memo- riam'* in 1850 the great controversy of the century began between science and religion, and Tenny- son was put to the defense of his faith against the implications of the materialistic synthesis.
Not that he ever had to fight to hold the faith he had so hardly won in his long battle... with doubt; or that he ever became a polemic and entered the lists of controversy and debate in defense of it — Tennyson was always too much of a poet to make his art the instrument of intellectual warfare. But if at times faith seemed to suffer a temporary obscuration behind the mists of scientific materialism, if ever old doubts and fears aroused themselves under the encour- agement of a newly expressed and imperfectly understood scientific theory, he found escape from them and was restored to clearness of spiritual vision again through the restatement of those principles that had assured their validity to his consciousness in the dark experiences of his earlier conflict, that had established them- selves by the irrefutable logic of a profound 77 78 Tennyson personal experience.
