What reading level is The Renaissance; Studies in Art And Poetry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— to lay open a new sense, to initiate a new organ for the human spirit, or to cultivate many types of perfection up to a point which leaves us still beyond the range of their transforming power ? Savonarola is one type of success ; Winckelmann is another ; criticism can reject neither, because each is true to itself. Winckelmann himself explains the motive of his life when he says, " It will be my highest reward, if posterity acknow- ledges that I have written worthily." For a time he remained... at Dresden. There his first book appeared, Thoughts on the Imitation of Greek Works of Art in Painting and Sculpture. Full of obscurities as it was, obscurities which baffled but did not offend Goethe when he first turned to art-criticism, its purpose was direct — an appeal from the artificial classicism of the day to the study of the antique. The book was well received, and a pension supplied through the king's confessor. In September 1755 he started for Rome, in the company of a young 188 WINCKELMANN Jesuit.
