What reading level is Architecture As a Branch of Aesthetic Psychologically Treated book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is no wonder that this opening with its pleasant welcome has been the pattern of all doors, portals, even windows, down to the present time; we can trace it often in the unpretentious cottage of the laborer. It has been already noted that the Egyp- tian, being so exclusive, shunned the entrance, and hence never developed its architectural form ; the outside was not to get inside with him, but on the whole to remain outside as unholy, unin- itiated, unconsecrated. On the other hand the Greek ...Peristyle is a line of entrances one after the other. The Parthenon has seven on each front and sixteen on each side. Still we must not forget that the limiting wall is also found in the Greek Temple, though inside.
Moreover with the tie-beam is introduced the THE HELLENIC NORM. 203 horizontal principle which at last reaches the point of dominating the vertical principle of the column . Here again we come upon a limit of Hellenic Architecture: it cannot widen itself out beyond a certain bound without becoming flat, heavy, unideal, without losing its beautiful Greek proportion.
