What reading level is Essays On the Nature And Principles of Taste volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
223 Liberty, and Independence, and savage Majesty. The neighing of a War-horse in the field of battle, or of a young and un- tamed Horse when at large among moun- tains, is powerfully Sublime. The same sound in a Cart-horse, or a Horse in the stable, is simply indifferent, if not disagree- able. No Sound is more absolutely mean, than the grunting of Swine. The same Sound in the wild Boar, an animal remark- able both for fierceness and strength, is Sublime. The memory of the reader will supply m...any other instances.
2. The Sublimity of such sounds cor- responds not to their Nature, as sounds, but to the Nature of the Qualities they signify. Sounds of all kinds are Sublime, in proportion as they are expressive of Power or Fierceness, or Strength, or any other quality capable of producing strong Emotions in the animals which they dis- tinguish. There are many instances un- doubtedly where loud Cries are Sublime, 224 SUBLIMITY AXD BEAUTY but there are many also, where such Notes are very far from being so.
