What reading level is Leaders in Norway And Other Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The prophet who pointed the way and guided the steps toward this great goal and vitalized in his speeches and writings the spirit which had dictated the constitution was Henrik Werge- land.
The foregoing is the background of facts on which the woman movement in Norway must be pictured if it is to be understood in relation to the national life. The prophet and leader in that movement was the sister of Henrik Wergeland, Fru Camilla Collett. She became the first great national pioneer in a world m...ovement of which the present generations are reaping the benefit. During the long weary years of her widowhood, Fru Collett reflected sufficiently upon the lot of women to see how false, unnatural and degraded was their posi- tion in the social whole ; and from the fullness of her experience she proceeded to show the facts in novels and essays. There were others a little later than she, more radical, such as Aasta Hansteen, philosopher and propagandist, who sought the reason for the contempt of woman in the century-old religious prejudice against woman as an inferior being, not created in the image of God, but merely in the image of man and hence kept [110] Progress of the Woman Movement in Norway in subjection by him.
