What reading level is The Essays of Montaigne — volume 10 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Aman may indeed judge of their parts, but not of their manners nor ofthemselves, by the writings they exhibit upon the theatre of the world. I have a thousand times lamented the loss of the treatise Brutus wroteupon Virtue, for it is well to learn the theory from those who best knowthe practice.
But seeing the matter preached and the preacher are different things, I would as willingly see Brutus in Plutarch, as in a book of his own. I would rather choose to be certainly informed of the conferen...ce he hadin his tent with some particular friends of his the night before abattle, than of the harangue he made the next day to his army; and ofwhat he did in his closet and his chamber, than what he did in the publicsquare and in the senate. As to Cicero, I am of the common opinion that, learning excepted, he had no great natural excellence. He was a goodcitizen, of an affable nature, as all fat, heavy men, such as he was, usually are; but given to ease, and had, in truth, a mighty share ofvanity and ambition.
