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

It must be whacked into the dust senseless, dead. There must be no such animal for there can be no such animal. That is excellent logic, excellently applied. That can be no begging of a question of taste. Say the miracle does occur. Say the crooked, dry, and wooden lines that are to replace Wagner's were to shoot living English blos- soms. They would be out of their proper setting, their fragrance alien, their color absurd. They could not replace the indigenous. At best they 55 THE PERTINENT WA...GNERITE might amaze as prestidigital transplanting. There could not possibly be any recognition of the inevit- able, requisite to true appreciation. The altogether unexpected in art has been found often enough al- most as disastrous as the altogether expected.
The proposal to translate the music dramas into French or Italian, although obviously fraught with the same impossibilities, 1 has at least the merit of acknowledging the superiority of a foreign over an English version. To be obliged to hear our daily speech from the lips of Kundry or Briinnhilde would be too hard a strain upon our credulity.
