What reading level is The Haskalah Movement in Russia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He knew that a few convincing arguments couched in gentle language will accomplish more for the fur- therance of an ideal than the trumpet call of a hundred clamoring militants, and Haskalah will make headway only when it can prove itself to be a help, and not a hindrance, to religion. Accordingly, he aimed to show that the Tanalm, Amoraim, Sabo- raim, Geonim, and rabbis of later generations were versed in the sciences, were familiar with foreign history, and interested in the affairs of the wo...rld. But these he quotes only as exemplars of broad- mindedness, they must no longer be regarded as authorities in secular knowledge. "Art and science, " he says, " are st idily progressing. . . . To perfect ourselves in them we must resort to non-Jewish sources. " This was a bold statement for those times, however mildly expressed. The Tetidah became a bone of contention. It was torn and burnt by fanatics, exalted to the skies by friends. The new apostle of enlightenment was forced to leave the city and reside for a while in Berdichev, Nemirov, Ostrog, and Tulchin.
