To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet by this path he came out alone above all competitors upon the al- pine top of realism. Again, how long were you before you got this freshness and quality of truth into your studies? Yet you expect, with a mere turn of the body, to trans- pose it into the foreign and far more difficult province of the studio picture. 'Tis all time and style. We are both idealists born out of season, and infected with the con- temporary and inconsistent taste. " Some of these ideas were elabo- rated by Steven...son in his essay on the elements of style in literature. There is one element of writing which is mentioned with scant re- spect and then dropped with a warning: the conscious and un- conscious artifices which may at- tract the uncritical, and even serve for popularity. Stevenson consid- Page 35 ers these elements unworthy of the serious artist, but points out that they may be lifted into a higher sphere and serve artistic ends. These artifices indeed are unrecog- nized in rhetoric, and thanks are due to Stevenson for calling atten- tion to them, not as individual fac- tors of work, but — when they are rightly used — as indications of a delicacy of sense finer than we con- ceive, and as hints of ancient har- monies in nature.
