What reading level is Philosophical Works Electronic Resource volume 02 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the objects be intimately connected, the passions are like an alkali and an acid, which, being mingled, destroy each other. If the relation be more imperfect, and consists in the contradictory views of the same object, the pas sions are like oil and vinegar, which, however mingled, never perfectly unite and incorporate.
As the hypothesis concerning hope and fear carries its own evidence along with it, we shall be the more concise in our proofs. A few strong arguments are better than many wea...k ones.
The passions of fear and hope may arise when the chances are equal on both sides, and no superiority can be discovered in the one above the other. Nay, in this situation the passions are rather the strongest, as the mind has then the least foundation to rest upon, and it is tossed with the greatest uncertainty. Throw in a superior degree of probability to the side of grief, you immediately see that passion diffuse itself over the com position, and tincture it into fear. Increase the proba bility, and by that means the grief, the fear prevails still more and more, till at last it runs insensibly, as the joy 200 OF THE PASSIONS.
