What reading level is An Interpretation of the Russian People book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the religious life has broadened and represents new interests, this art must keep pace with it, and, as Vladimirov put it, the artist must harmonize his 78 An Interpretation of the Russian People religious ideas with his own sensations, because only thus can he put himself in touch with those to whom he wants to convey certain truths.
Tolstoy recognizes three factors which, in spite of the clear purpose of art to act as an adjunct to religion, have aided in the propagation of an adulterated ...art. The reward which the artist gets for his production leads him to create for a small minority of men capable and willing to pay, not for what is to aid the masses in their moral de- velopment, but for what pleases them in their cor- rupted tastes. The criticism of art, being based, not on the correspondence with the religious con- viction of the time, but on the canons established by the Greeks and misunderstood and debased by the medieval artists, who were in the service of the mighty, causes the artist to follow artificial and antiquated traditions which have nothing in com- mon with the reality and its relation to religion.
