What reading level is The Origins of French Romanticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

There, however, the resemblance ends: for Bernardin never desceiided to the moral depths in which his predecessor was perfectly at home.
In ideas, too, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre draws continu- ally upon Rousseau, with whom he was acquainted and whose works he constantly read. Both, as wiU be seen, 74 BERNAEDIN DE SAINT-PIERRE 75 are individualists; both have the same ideas, or, rather, the same " feelings," about Nature and Religion; both are wanderers, and in their wanderings we have the germ
...of the Romantic cosmopolitan spirit; both, once more, are intensely emotional. It is fortunate, no doubt, that such qualities as these should be shared by two men, instead of being possessed by only one; but it is certainly both fortunate and remarkable that Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, in handing on such fruitful ideas to his successors, should have possessed one great literary quality very much in excess of his master.
For Bernardin de Saint-Pierre was, first and foremost, a painter; and, in the drab eighteenth-century, a man who could bring brightly coloured images of far-off lands before the eyes of his readers was assured of a following second only to that of one who could play to perfection on the strings of the human heart.
