What reading level is The Imaginary Gentleman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He held a pamphlet to the light seeping in at the carriage window. It was a mercifully slim volume, entitled Hysteric Disorders of the Female Mind by Doctor Albert Mellbone. He turned to the flyleaf.
“There is no passion with which people are so ready to tamper as love, although none is more dangerous.”
Dr William Buchan, 1785 Edward groaned. Was the good Doctor Mellbone capable of nothing more inspiring than this? A quick glance through the list of contents informed him that Mellbone was indeed... capable of more. The little booklet summarised the collected wisdom of respected physicians from Galen, in the second century, to the up-to-date theories of Dr Pinel, who was shaking the ideas of the more progressive medical men in England as he had done already in Paris. Edward shook his head over this section. Did a Frenchman dare speak about the mind of an English gentlewoman?
By the end of the journey, Edward felt he was in command of a more scholarly view than that of the everyday male, whose education about Old Maid’s Illness took place in the tavern, amid snorts of derision.
