What reading level is The New Laokoon An Essay On the Confusion of the Arts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Berg- son's point of view is a protest against the hard and cramping determinism that certain scientific dog- matists would impose upon the human spirit ; it is at the same time a plea for creative spontaneity.
But M. Bergson does not himself overstep the bounds of naturalism. His spontaneity is Rous- seauistic, not Platonic ; that is, it aims at vital ex- pansion and not at vital concentration. The very phrases of M. Bergson that are most current are significant in this respect, — phrases for ...instance like e"lan vital and />ouss/e interieure. The main concern of a Platonist would have been with that something that seems to proceed from the inner- most recesses of man's being, and that makes itself felt, not as impulse, but rather as a norm and check ; upon impulse, — not as an /Ian vital, but rather as ja /rein vital. M. Bergson's revolt from the stark ] determinism in which a certain over-analytic and mechanical conception of scientific truth would [212] THE LIMITS OF NATURALISM imprison nature and human nature reminds one of some of the German romantic philosophers.
