What reading level is The Empire of Love book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
WhenHe looked upon the multitude He was "moved with compassion"--never wasthere more illuminative sentence. It reveals an attitude of mindabsolutely original. For the general attitude towards the multitude inChrist's day was harsh and scornful. All the splendid intellectualismof Greece existed for the favoured few; beneath that glittering edificeof art and letters lay the dungeons of the slave. It was the same withRome; it was an empire of privilege, in which the multitude had nopart. Jewish so...ciety was built after the same pattern, except thatwith the Pharisee the sense of religious superiority bred a kind ofarrogance much more bitter than that which is the fruit of intellectualor social exclusiveness. With men of this temper the call to love allmen as fellows could only provoke anger and derision. What possiblerelation could exist between an Athenian philosopher and a helot, aRoman noble and a slave, a Pharisee proud of his meticulous knowledgeof the law, and the common people who were unlettered?
