What reading level is Memories And Thoughts: Men--Books--Cities--Art book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I remember an argument in which she engaged me, wherein I thought, as I still think, she was mistaken. She maintained, apropos of a review of troops she had lately seen, that "the pomp and circumstance of glorious war" was more con- spicuous in our day than it was in the Middle Ages. Having some knowledge of mediaeval art, ItaUan war-paintings, and illuminated Froissarts, I ventured to doubt. The company seemed to think me bold in venturing to difiFer from her opin- ion on a matter of local col...our. But she did not think so herself ; and nothing could be more graceful than the patience OTth which she listened to my points.
In the year i860, at Wandsworth, she was working under severe pressure, having broken with her own family, retain- ing only one or two women friends, quite unknown to general society. Years afterwards, when she lived in London and at Witley, she had the cultured world at her feet; men and women of rank and reputation crowded her Sunday receptions, and she was surrounded by friends and reverential worship- pers of her genius.
