What reading level is The Old And the New Century An Address Delivered Before the New York Historica book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— Is it possible to characterise each briefly and comprehensively ? It is not so easy as is often supposed, to throw The Old and the New Century. 13 history into clearly defined periods and to draw sharply the lines of cleavage between them. The Oxford historian, the late Edward Freeman, was wont to protest vigorously against the popular di- vision of history into ancient and modern, and to declare that he had never been able to find out the difference between the two, nor where ancient his- to...ry ends and modern history begins ; and Thomas Arnold was right when he claimed that what is called ancient history is the most truly modern, the most truly living, and the most rich in practical lessons for every succeeding age.
We may indeed throw history roughly into di- visions, in each of which some particular idea or aggregation of ideas takes definite shape, and is worked out wholly or in part, and we may denote the century by the idea ; but the fact remains that the ideas of successive periods overlap in their development, and that those ideas which burst into flower in one period, and which we seize upon as characteristic, have been fermenting and germinating in preceding periods, and put forth new branches and yield new fruit in those which succeed.
