What reading level is Human Character book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus we have the soldier, " Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the canon's mouth ... " This passage describes bovarysm. The courage which it depicts is not that of a powerful, spontaneous and lofty egoism, but is based on an artificial theory of life and of the duties and purposes of life. ^ As regards morals, bovarysm is nearly universal, because morals are commonly taught to children as a doctrine enforced by authority. Morals based on an art...ificial foundation have rarely the stability or strength of the normal moral instinct. But since the ordinary method of education neglects to train the moral emotions, emphasising in their place a dogmatic moral code, the moral emotions of most people are inadequately developed, and if the dog- matic code is thrown off, demoralisation is very likely to be the first result. Bovarysm cannot be established or rejected in a day.
In ordinary life, bovarysm is met with in numberless different forms. Here is a man who is obsessed with social distinctions, and exhibits the bovarysm of snobbery.
