What reading level is Emersons Complete Works volume 11 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Can you convince the shoe interest, or the iron interest, or the cotton interest, by reading passages from Milton or Montesquieu ? You wish to satisfy people that slav ery is bad economy. Why, the Edinburgh Review " pounded on that string, and made out its case, forty years ago. A democratic statesman said to me, long since, that, if he owned the State of Kentucky, he would manumit all the slaves, and be a gainer by the transac tion. Is this new? No, everybody knows it. As a general economy it ...is admitted. But there is no one owner of the state, but a good many small owners. One man owns land and slaves ; another owns slaves only. Here is a woman who has no other property, like a lady in Charleston I knew of, who owned fifteen sweeps and rode in her carriage. It is clearly a vast inconven ience to each of these to make any change, and they are fretful and talkative, and all their friends are ; and those less interested are inert, and, from want of thought, averse to innovation. It is like free trade, certainly the interest of nations, but by no means the interest of certain towns and districts, which tariff feeds fat ; and the eager interest of the few overpowers the apathetic general conviction of the many.
