What reading level is Corrected Impressions Essays On Victorian Writers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The decriers of Macaulay have been a strangely miscellaneous band. It was not to be expected that the Tories whom he affected to despise should like him ; or that the Evangelicals, who regarded him as a renegade, Macaulay. 83 and the Dissenters, who looked on him as the inheritor of the wicked wit of Sydney Smith, should love him. But he managed to attract hosts of enemies of the most heterogeneous kinds. It used to be a tradition in Oxford (I never saw the passage and I apologise to Mr.
Smith
...if it is not true) that Mr. Goldwin Smith even in the fullest days of his Liberalism called Macaulay " a shallow scoundrel." Mr. Matthew Arnold, as is well known, exhausted his elegant quiver on the " Lays of Ancient Rome," and was evidently often thinking of Macaulay when he denounced the British Philistine. The tribe of Dryasdust hated him beciause he was not merely an omnivorous reader but a brilliant writer ; and the devotees of historical philosophy could not forgive him his obstinate superficiality and the calm assumption which accompanied it that there was nothing beneath the surface.
