What reading level is Manual of Supplementary References to the Course of Lectures Upon Moral ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This must be ascertained by the usual rules and laws of evidence, and by the use of the ordinary intellectual fac- ulties. It is upon the view of the voluntary acts of the mind, as they are represented to it, that the conscience utters its sen- tence. Thus, in the case which we have put of the two pa- rents chastising their children, the one act presented to the conscience is that of a parent seeking, by proper punishment to correct vice, and the other act, is that of an individual cherishing p...assion, and acting upon it. It is upon this repre- sentation that the conscience proceeds, and provided the rep- resentation be correct, the decision will be infallible. But let it be observed that the representation may be an erroneous one. Under the influence of hasty feeling or prejudice, we may have formed very incorrect judgements as to the real state of mind of the individuals whose conduct we have been ob- serving. While the conscience has pronounced verdicts which are righteous in themselves, these verdicts may be mistaken in regard to the given individual ; for the one parent may not have been under the influence of such high-minded virtue, nor the other the slave of passion, as has been supposed.
