What reading level is Fifty Years of American Idealism the New York Nation 1865 1915 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A "widower bull" and an "enigmatical bitch" — the latter unconventional turn being dehcately relegated to a foot- note — were the most vivid figm-es in the phantasmagory that did duty for the true "(Edipus." Of course most of us felt that there must be poetry there, but the admira- tion was induced.
My contemporaries may have been more fortunate than I was, but I think that I represented the average lad of the average American college in the fifth decade of the century. The change that has come... over our classical study since that time is due to German influence and German training, which were then but feebly felt except at the great centres; and this is a debt which we must not forget even now, when it is our right and our duty to assert a certain independence of judgment, and dare to think for ourselves and investigate for ourselves.
Sophocles is the favorite of the Germans, and it is pos- sible that they have loved him too minutely. A subtle plot like that of the "(Edipus" may be dissected into fila- ments so fine that the threads will cease to hold.
