What reading level is Master-Spirits book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Adherence to their cardinal principle of scientific procedure is quite enough to make them countenance encyclopaedic preten- sions in anybody ; and it is with no regret that they per- ceive the infallible airs of men who, except from the point of view of the true faith, have no claim whatever to the title of first-class intellects.
Condorcet was no more a first-class intellect than is Professor Huxley. Mr. Morley*s picture of him is grand and vivifying, and sufficiently proves him to have been ...a social benefactor, a servant of the race, a thinker touching truth in a false time ; but then the world was and is full of benefactors, of servants, of thinkers most apprehensive in the direction of light. In our opinion, the only cir- cumstance which could have warranted the claim put forward by Condorcet, on the score that his * central idea was to procure the eniancipation of reason, free and ample room for its exercise, and improved competence among men in the use of it,* would have been the verifi- cation of Condorcet*s own rationality as a historical critic.
