What reading level is John Ruskin Microform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
] AS SOCIAL REFORMER 97 a great extent had dissociated himself. The corre- spondence between Mill and Comte, and Comte's own Polity, show how entirely alien to plutonomic orthodoxy was the Positive Philosophy ; but of this John Ruskin was in 1860, and remained all his life, perfectly ignorant. But he was saturated with the thought of Carlyle, and he was in close touch with Maurice and his friends, and both of these men were in touch with the revolu- tionists and socialists whom the European eve...nts between 1848 and 1860 made familiar to thoughtful Englishmen. Ruskin was thus not by any means the first to throw doubts over the gospel of Ricardo and M'Culloch. But he was no doubt the first to open fire on the very creed and decalogue of that gospel, and he certainly was the first to put those doubts and criticisms into trenchant literary form such as long stirred the general public as with a trumpet note.
The four essays, so characteristically entitled — "The Roots of Honour, " "The Veins of Wealth, " ''Qui judicatis Terram^'' ''Ad Valorem, '' open with this trenchant sentence : — "Among the delusions which at different periods have possessed themselves of the minds of large masses of the human race, perhaps the most curious — certainly the least creditable — is the modern soi-disant science of poUtical economy, based on the idea that an advantageous code of, social action may be determined irrespectively of the influence • of social affection.
