What reading level is The Historian As a Political Force in Central Europe An Inaugural Lecture Deliv book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" History has to steer an even course between the Scylla of style and the Charybdis of shall I say? palaeography. Those who concentrate above all upon "making history live, " as the phrase goes, only too often themselves become uncritical in their search for effect. Yet the instinct is sound, for unless we can make it live, history must, perforce, remain a poor dead thing mere decaying vegetable matter, unfit for huma n digestion, and of little use even as leaf mould.
Nowhere, however, is this ...broadening process more apparent than in the growing recognition that contemporary history is a fit subject for instruction, or at least that the very grave objections to its teaching are outweighed by the urgent need for what is, after all, becoming part of a training in citizenship. I yield to none in my belief in the study of history for its own sake, but surely it is well-nigh impos- sible to-day to maintain the attitude adopted by some highly distinguished historians of the nineteenth century and to deny to history any utilitarian basis whatsoever.
