What reading level is The American Scholar book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The references are abundant, and, so far as we have examined them, distinguished by the same accuracy which we noticed in the former history. Occasionally there is a little harmless pedantry. Thus in the text, he says that Cortes told his men to aim at the faces of the foe, and in the margin quotes Lucan to remind us that the veterans of Caesar hit the dandies of Pom- pey's army in the same way. But such things are rare, and by no means disagreeable.
He often refers events to Providence which o...ther men would be content with ascribing to human agency.
Thus he says, " it was beneficiently ordered by Provi- dence that the land [of the Mexicans] should be de- livered over to another race, who would rescue it from the brutish superstitions that daily extended wider and wider." But in the same manner " it was beneficently ordered by Providence " that merchant ships should be delivered over to Admiral Drake or Captain Kidd; that the Indians of Massachusetts should butcher the white men at Dccrficld, and the whites should carry the head of King Philip on a pole into Plymouth and sell his family into slavery.
