What reading level is A College Fetich An Address Delivered Before the Harvard Chapter of the Frater book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I suppose I did get some discipline out of that boyish martyr- dom. I should have got some discipline out of an equal num- ber of hours spent on a treadmill. But the discipline I got for the mind out of the study of Greek, so far as it was carried and in the way in which it was pursued in my case, was very much such discipline as would be acquired on the treadmill for the body. I do not think it was any higher or any more intelligent. Yet I studied Greek with patient fidelity; and there are not... many modern graduates who can say, as I can, that they have, not without enjoyment, read the Iliad through in the original from its first line to its last. But I read it ex- actly as some German student, toiling at English, might read Shakespeare or Milton. As he slowly puzzled them out, an hundred lines in an hour, what insight would he get into the pathos, the music and the majesty of Lear or of the Paradise Lost? What insight did I get into Homer? And then they actually tell me to my face that unconsciously, through the medium of a grammar, a lexicon and Felton's Greek Reader, the subtile spirit of a dead literature was and is infused into a parcel of boys !
