What reading level is Elements of Unity in the Homeric Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
yet with tastes as keen, with faculties surely as quick, and habits formed, vocations organized, accordingly? The lack of writing might be the very condition for the preservation. A curious materialism has seemed to infest the treatment of this subject, the habit of dealing with mind in terms of matter; which may fit perfectly with any amount of theory, but is found to be false in fact. One odd working of this in- capable treatment is the assumption, that not the preserva- tion merely but the c...omposition of creative poetry must de- pend in some great measure on this accessory; that although lays and lyrics might be composed without writing, long epics could not. How fundamental human interests could be affected by the art in question, does not appear. It is agreed that a lay might be composed and recited, say, like 12 Elements of Unity in the Homeric Poems a single book of the present Iliad. Suppose this lay set forth, in vivid phrase, in ravishing numbers, with dramatic power and life unknown in the world before, a quarrel of heroic chiefs, expressly as the beginning of tremendous woes; con- ceive the hearers lifted to a pitch of ecstasy worthy of that new revelation; would that be the end of the matter, until bark and scraper came along to petrify the tale?
