What reading level is Essays in Philosophy, Old And New book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But this disparagement of the whole re- gion of metaphysic, because it deals with the questions of "being" and "essence," is not so surprising as is Mr. Arnold's at- tempt to find, in the simple etymology of words, a clue to the mysteries which bafl3e the ontologist. In this investigation, in- Digitized by L3OOQ IC PERSONALITY AND THE INFINITE, 2$ 7 teresting as it is, he has started on a journey which ends in a cul de sac. To discover the origin of the terms Being, Es- sence, Substance, by get...ting hold of the primitive Aryan root whence the Greek, Latin, French, or English words have been derived, will not help us in the inquiry which concerns the origin of the ideas ex- pressed by these terms. Abstracta ex con- cretis may be the law of linguistic deriva- tion ; and, by etymological study, we may learn how the human race has come to make use of certain terms, and to attach particular meanings to them. In following the course of the ancient river of linguis- tic aflSnity, we may trace the process by which the notions of movement, growth, and permanence have possibly grown out of the "breathe," ''grow," and ''stand" of the old Aryan root.
