What reading level is The Greater Parables of Tolstoy, With Interpretations, As Told to His Congregation book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
10, II, 12.
To read text before sermon, always advisable, is here absolutely necessary. The text speaks of absten- tion, for various reasons, from the physical pleasures associated with marriage. The sermon enforces the text as never sermon before in this world. The text declares explicitly that it is not for general appli- cation, cannot expect to be universally admitted, but is for those select men and women, those elect souls, who are able to receive it. Let it not be forgotten anywhere thro...ughout this unparalleled, this stupefying discourse. The sermon is for him who can receive it.
This frightful parable was first told about a dozen 67 The Greater Parables of Tolstoy years ago, and the teller has informed us he adheres to its teaching still ; that he has no doubt of the truth- fulness of his conceptions, or their value for the human family. He sees what no one else seems to see, and gathers all his force to set forth the hard, the unpalat- able truth.
It is necessary also to be severely true to the sermonic idea ; to keep ever before us the preacher, not the writer — the moralist, not the artist — the parable, not the story — the judgment of sin, not the tickling of the fancy.
