What reading level is The Erotic Motive in Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Deprived of a world that he wished to inhabit, he built one in his fantasies and day dreams, one that was the very 107 io8 THE EROTIC MOTIVE IN LITERATURE opposite of that in which he was constrained to dwell.
If he was toiling in barren labour he pictured himself at congenial work, or leisure; if he dwelt in squalor and was deprived of necessities, he mentally placed himself in beautiful surroundings, rolling in luxury, and in posses- sion of property he prized most. If he had no one to love h...e formed an ideal for himself, with whom he lived.
If the loved one did not return his love he depicted him- self as wed to her.
That literature is influenced and created by the wishes of the character or author may be seen readily. A tale of Ernest Renan sheds light on this theory, and also serves as a valuable illustration how neurotics and insane people derive their illnesses from unfulfilled love desires, and how they build phantasies where those wants are satisfied. Pleasant pictures appear in day dreams, but these often assume such reality that the victim cannot tell the fanciful from the actual.
