What reading level is In Quest of the Beautiful book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His attack is on the emotions, yet our best poets have always in mind that powerful citadel the intellect that gives little quarter to the feelings. When we have bent our minds over the Mahabharata, the Iliad, the Odyssey, the Koram, the Talmud, the Bible, the J^nied, Dante's Divine Comedy, and Shakespeare, we are left with the idea that the whole of these are only mass attacks on the two sides of us the head and the heart, or intellect and emotion. And it may explain that it is easier to feel ...than to think. Our poets take us into dubious company as a consequence; the subtle appeal of beauty through the singers is something to excite caution, and in examining some of the examples of the beauti- ful in poetry, I found that the best satisfied both the head and the heart.
In Book XXIV. Of the Iliad the music of sorrow led me to that point where the beauty in magnanimity was clear. A poet, or poets, touching on eternal happenings in the pageant of life, at this place, was, by art, adding to the stature of human beings.
