What reading level is Beatties Letters volume 1 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Craig will, I am sure, make it such in the architecture ; and if he follow his ow'i ideas, in the inscription too. But, since he does me the honour to desire to have my opi- nion, I shall give it with tlie cieatest sincerity. I think, then, that all pub. Ic inscriptions, wliether intended for tombs, or cenotaphs, or bridges, or any other public building, are made with a view to catch the eye of the traveller, and convey to him, not the wit of the composer, but some authentic information in rega...rd to the object that draws his attention, and is supposed to raise his curiosity. On this principle, all such writings ought to be perfectly simple and true, and as concise as the subject and language will admit. This is the cha- racter of the Greek and Roman inscriptions, which it is a pity the moderns have so rarely imitated; for, in my mind, nothing is more barbarous than those mixtures of verse and prose, of Latin and Eng- lish, of narration and common-place morality, Avliich appear in our churches and church- yards, and other public places.
