What reading level is Men And Letters: Essays in Characterization And Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is the merit of this delightful biography that, while it is written with no singular skill, it is unusually transparent as a me- dium through which to reward a remarkable 108 MEN AND LETTERS man. There are no marks of suppression by the biographer; apparently her single aim was to clear away whatever might withdraw attention from her subject, and the book thus leads the reader on to the close with an unflagging interest. It is rare indeed to find so unpretending and so successful a piece of ...biographic work. There was every- thing in the subject to tempt an ambitious writer into making a fine portrait; as I have intimated, the character is so unique and its expression so original that it would have been easy to throw an air of improba- bility over the whole by emphasizing certain characteristics. As it is, the truthfulness of the picture is warranted by the unafiEected- ness with which it is painted.
It was Dr. Muhlenberg's fortune to be easily misunderstood. At a time when the church to which he belonged was timid and suspected, he used its liturgical stores with a freedom and an effectiveness which startled his associates, and upon the appearance of the Tractarian movement in the Church of England he was quickly identified with it in the minds of those who judged exclusively •from a use of -synibols and forms common to liim and the English ritualists.
