What reading level is Literary And General Lectures And Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This, as it appearsto me, is to take not a rational, but rather a most irrational, aswell as a most irreverent, view of the question: it is to confinethe pleasure and improvement to be derived from works of art withinvery narrow bounds; it is to seal up a fountain of the richestpoetry, and to shut out a thousand ennobling and inspiring thoughts. Happily there is a growing appreciation of these larger principles ofcriticism as applied to the study of art. People look at thepictures which hang ro...und their walls, and have an awakeningsuspicion that there is more in them than meets the eye--more thanmere connoisseurship can interpret; and that they have another, adeeper significance than has been dreamed of by picture dealers andpicture collectors, or even picture critics. --Introd. Xxiii.
On these grounds Mrs. Jameson treats of the Poetry of Sacred andLegendary Art. Her first volume contains a general sketch of thelegends connected with angels, with the scriptural personages, andthe primitive fathers.
