What reading level is Life of Charlotte Brontë book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Certainly one cannot feel hopeful about these later works. What St. Ambrose said about men's salvation may also be said about their pleasures — it did not please God to provide them in dialectic^. Novels are supposed to treat of life, and life refuses to be jargonized.
However, with these rocks ahead, it seems impossible but to adhere to the classification I am not bold enough to repeat.
Mr. Swinburne in his delightful Note on Charlotte Bronte exhibits a little of what I may call the "grubbing ...up " spirit of Lord Macaulay, and looks forward to the good time when " darkness everlasting " shall have fallen upon some popular favourites whom he names. I have not the spirits to join in this exultation. For, after all, these popular favourites who have served us a good turn before now, will be trodden under foot only to make room for writers no whit their superiors, but for the possession of what Wordsworth called the ** irritation of novelty." The last-named great poet in his supple- mentary preface had the courage to point out that bad poetry is as immortal as good, the difference between the two being that the immortality of the good is the immortality of the individual, whilst in tlie other case it ■" only the species that is immortal.
