What reading level is Critical Historical And Miscellaneous Essays volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Not one Lon- doner in ten thousand can lay down the rules for the proper use of will and shall. Yet not one Londoner in a million ever misplaces his will and shall. Doctor Robertson could, undoubtedly, have written a luminous dissertation on the use of those words. Yet, even in his latest work, he sometimes misplaced them ludicrously. No man uses figures of speech with more propriety be- cause he knows that one figure is called a metonymy and another a synecdoche. A drayman in a passion calls o...ut, " You are a pretty fellow, " without suspecting that he is uttering irony, and that irony is one of the four primary tropes. The old systems of rhetoric were never regarded by the most experienced and discerning judges as of any use for the purpose of forming an orator 44 Ego hanc vim intelligo, " said Cicero, " esse in prse- ceptis omnibus, non ut ea secuti oratores eloquentias teudem sint adepti, sed qua3 sua sponte homines elo- quentes facerent, ea quosdam observasse, atque id 'egisse ; sic esse non eloquentiam ex artificio, sed arti- fieium ex eloquentia nutum.
