What reading level is In Memoriam Jesse Seligman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I will not describe those scenes of terror; I will not describe the splendid courage and heroism of one great man, Maurice de Hirsch, in meeting that emergency. But I cannot but allude to the reception of the news in this country — most unwelcome, most frightful news. Naturally, the high hearted would have opened their arms with enthusiasm to receive the victims of oppression and to heal their wounds. But there were among us, and I have no doubt there are still among us, lOO JESSE SELIGMAN thos...e who felt comfortable enough, and did not want their elegant leisure and their satisfied content to be interfered with or imperilled by the advent of thousands and hundreds of thousands of strangers, undistinguished save by their poverty and strange manner and alien speech, and I have no doubt that all of you have heard Jews say that they have no business here; that if they had behaved themselves in Russia, that fine gentleman the Czar, would never have oppressed them. Some, many, have repented of these cruel words ; many, no doubt, still adhere to them, because it is easier to shut the eye to duty than to meet an emergency bravely and perform the duty.
