What reading level is The Unity of Civilization book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I do not think that the unity of the great art of Europe, thecomparative insignificance of merely national characteristics andhistorical circumstances can find a more convincing illustration.
* * * * * I could wish that I were able to deal adequately with the parallelmovements of painting and sculpture during these centuries, but I haveneither the capacity nor is there now the time to deal with them. Thismuch only may be said, that the movement of these arts is very closelyparallel during t...hese centuries, from the fourteenth to the seventeenth, to that of literature. I cannot discuss the characteristics of mediaevalsculpture and painting, but I would remind you that the notion thatthese were merely conventional and abstract is just as mistaken as thenotion that mediaeval literature deals only with conventions orallegories. It is of course obviously true that the ecclesiastical orreligious purpose served by the greater part of the decorative art ofthe Middle Ages which has survived to us, limits and restrains itssubjects and its forms.
