What reading level is Lectures On the Philosophy of the Human Mind volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
361 notions supposed should not arise, — that the infant should be con- scious of a regular series of feelings, in the contraction of its fin- gers and arms, and yet that portions of this series should not be- come significant of various proportional lengths ; — and, if the no- tion of certain proportional lengths do truly accompany certain de- grees of progressive contraction, it seems equally impossible, ac- cording to the general principles of our mental constitution, that the compoimd tactu...al and muscular feeling, which must arise in every case, in which any one of these degrees of contraction is impeded, should not become associated with the notion of that par- ticular length, of which it supplies the place, so as at last to be- come truly representative of it.
In this manner, I endeavoured to explain to you, how our knowledge of the mere length of bodies may have been acquired, from varieties of length that are recognized as coexisting and prox- imate, and are felt to unite, as it were, and terminate in our sen- sation of resistance, which interrupts them equally, and interrupts always a greater number of the coexisting truths, in proportion to the size of the body compressed ; and, in a similar manner, our notions of the other dimensions of bodies, which are only these va- rieties of length in different directions.
