What reading level is The Advance of Woman From the Earliest Times to the Present book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The boys were destined to be soldiers and the girls to be mothers of soldiers, and hence, they were required to have exactly the same physical training that they might be equally endowed. So severe was Spartan discipline that it has passed into a proverb. If a girl developed sickliness she was not allowed to marry nor would she want to, as it was looked upon almost as a crime. But few of them did owing to the 127 THE ADVANCE OF WOMAN process of elimination. The result was that for sev- eral hun...dred years the Spartans excelled in physical health and strength any people that ever existed.
But as in Athens, degeneracy set in, the men fell from their high estate and the women are no longer heard of. The student of history will have it con- stantly brought to his notice that the condition and position of the women in a nation is the unfailing index of the worth and eminence of its men. The one is the reflex of the other. The hopeless vacuity of the minds of women who are never allowed into the streets, who have no intercourse with other minds, who know nothing of the world of affairs, who never read a book because they cannot, who are denied the uplifting influence of the beauty of nature, its hills and dales, trees and flowers, is infinitely more pathetic than any physical abuse they may have to endure.
