What reading level is Courage in Politics And Other Essays 1885 1896 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Translated from the German by W. Hastie, B. D. (Edinburgh : Oliver and Boyd, 1886. ) HEGEL 107 enterprise and in his introductory comments, which, though expressed with that almost lyric enthusiasm which is inspired in many young Scotchmen by the contemplation of the imperfectly comprehensible, are in the main just and to the point. This translation of Hegel's preliminary chapter is sufficient to convince its readers, if they were not convinced before, first that -there really are principles in... art, and secondly that nearly all our English criticism is void of such principles. Compared with Hegel's grasp of the truth of art, much of our most admirable criticism appears to be little better than very tender but imperfect feminine appreciation — all love and little or no light, and therefore liable to change with the critic's mood and fancy. The very purpose of art (which Hegel declares, in words that ought to be written in letters of gold, is ' to bring the highest interests of the spirit into consciousness ') is only obscurely and occasionally recognized by our four or five best writers on the subject — men who have the power of saying everything, but who, not having any ground of ascertained principle to stand upon, have little or nothing to say.
