What reading level is The New Monthly Magazine book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

— It is the general feeling of mankind — the light that is within us ibat must appreciate thefn. That whidi contains no beauty but what it requires die eye of a critic to find out, contains none at all. All the criticism in the world never made a single real lover of the fine arts.
It has made hosts of amateurs and connoisseurs — ^worshippers of a name — stringers of phrases — chatterers about gust-p^ chiaro- wnro^ the beau idialf and so ferth. But these have no real love for the fine arts. The
...y can have none, — ^because real love, whatever may be the object of it, springs from the depths of the heart ; — and these people iave no hearts : they have talked their's away ; or bartered them for a vocabulary of technical phrases.
When once the few fundamental principles of truth are known, then the taste that is got by reading books o^ criticism, is like the morality that is acquired by reading books of casuistry — that is, something worse than none at all : — for criticism is to beautv in art, just what meta- physics is to truth in morals — it makes *' no light, but rather darkness visible." Criticism, like every thing else, is very well in its place; but like every thing else, it does not exactly know where that is.
