What reading level is The Protestant Ethic And the Spirit of Capitalism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And the emphasis on feeling, in John Wesley awakened by Moravian and Lutheran influences, led Methodism, which from the beginning saw its mission among the masses, to take on a strongly emotional character, especially in America. The attainment of repentance under certain circumstances involved an emotional struggle of such intensity as to lead to the most terrible ecstasies, which in America often took place in a public meeting. This formed the basis of a belief in the undeserved possession of... divine grace and at the same time of an immediate consciousness of justification and forgiveness.
Now this emotional religion entered into a peculiar alliance, containing no small inherent difficulties, with the ascetic ethics which had for good and all been stamped with rationality by Puritanism. For one thing, unlike Calvinism, which held everything emotional to be illusory, the only sure basis for the certitude salutis was in principle held to be a pure feeling of ab solute ce rtainty of forgiveness, derived immediately from the testimony of the spirit, the coming of which could be definitely placed to the hour.
