What reading level is Miscellanies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Eome broke men's spirits, and would not endure that a provincial should ever have protection from a violent and tyrannical official. Therefore was Europe cursed by the barbarian invasion, with infinite anguish, and with an almost total wreck of the knowledge and culture which long centuries had worked out.
.c;^..
CONTRASTS OF ANCIENT AND MODERN HISTORY.
IN FOUR PARTS.
[Fiom FsAZSB*B Maqazinb, September, 1874.] PART I.
Thb whole interest of history depends on the eternal likeness of human nature... to itself, and on the similarities or analogies which we in consequence perpetually discover between that which has been and that which is. Were it otherwise, all the narratives of the past would be an enigma to our understandings; for we should be without that sympathy which kindles imagination and gives insight ; nor would the experience of the ancient world afford instruction or warning to him who is trying to anticipate futurity.
With good reason, therefore, the greatest stress is ordinarily laid on this side of the question — the similarities to be detected between the past and the present.
