What reading level is The Feminine in Fiction book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That Spanish woman, who lived three hundred years ago, was certainly not the last of her kind. Many Teresas have been born who found for themselves no epic life wherein there was a constant unfolding of far-resonant action ; perhaps only a life of mistakes, the offspring of a certain spiritual grandeur ill-matched with the meanness of opportunity ; perhaps a tragic failure which found no sacred poet and sank unwept into oblivion. With dim lights and tangled circum- stances they tried to shape t...heir thought and deed in noble agreement ; but, after all, to common eyes their 35 THE FEMININE IN FICTION struggles seemed mere inconsistency and formlessness ; for these later-born Teresas were helped by no coherent social faith and order which could perform the function of knowledge for the ardently willing soul. Their ardour alternated between a vague ideal and the common yearning of womanhood ; so that the one was disapproved as extravagance and the other con- demned as a lapse. Some have felt that these blun- dering lives are due to the inconvenient indefiniteness with which the Supreme Power has fashioned the natures of women ; if there were one level of feminine incompetence as strict as the ability to count three and no more, the social lot of women might be treated with scientific certitude.
