What reading level is Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The three great mod- ern critics of France show each in his own way the value of culture in the crit- ical equipment. Sainte-Beuve's crit- icism is what it is largely because of his saturation with literature in gen- eral, not belles-lettres exclusively; of the sensitiveness and severity of taste thus acquired, or at least thus certified and invigorated; and of the instinctive ease, and almost scientific precision, with which he was thus enabled to ap- ply in his own art that comparative method... already established in the sci- 31 CRITICISM entific study of linguistics and literary history. Thus, too, he was enabled to add perhaps his most distinguished contribution to the practice of criticism — the study, sympathetic but objec- tive, of character, namely, the person- ality of the author which informs and explains his productions, and in which his productions inevitably inhere so far as they have any synthetic value, or significant purpose. Such study can only be pursued in the light of standards furnished by the sifting of innumerable examples, and illustrated in the work of the surviving fittest.
