What reading level is Liberal Education An Address Delivered Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society of Ha book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Proceeding on this assumption, various writers have issued special pleas for various branches of learning as deserving of the most prom- inent place in an academical curriculum. One has ar- gued in behalf of the mathematics, that they offer the finest specimens of connected trains of reasoning, and afford the finest gymnasium for the powers of consecu- tive thought. Another has called our attention to the conceded fact, that these sciences reason only of one kind of relation, that of quantity, ...and therefore are a less valuable intellectual exercise than metaphysical and moral philosophy, which deals with all things. A third party claim for the Latin and Greek tongues the merit of giving the most varied and constant exercise to the judgment and ingenuity of the student. A tournament in which such giants as the Master of Trinity College and the Edinburgh Professor of Logic meet, is beyond contro- versy a grand and entertaining spectacle. But to at least one observer of that contest, it appears that both cham- pions were contending for error, since it was assumed on both sides that the discipline of the logical powers was the chief end of liberal education.
