What reading level is Music in the History of the Western Church With An Introduction On Religious M book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All this, and much more of a similar sort, the prod- uct of vulgar error and distorted thinking, cannot be gainsaid. But let us, with equal candor, acknowledge that there is a bright side to this subject. Corruption and falsehood are not altogether typical of the German religious poetry of the Middle Age. Many Protestant writers represent the mediaeval German hymns as chiefly given over to mariolatry and much debasing superstition, and as therefore indicative of the religious state of the natio...n. This, however, is very far from being the case, as a candid examination of such a collection as Wackernagel's will show. Take out everything that a severe Protestant would reject, and there remains a large body of poetry which flows from the pure, undefiled springs of Christian faith, which from the evangelical standpoint is true and edifying, gems of expression not to be matched by the poetry of 237 MUSIC IN THE WESTERN CHURCH Luther and his friends in simplicity and refinement of language. Ideas common to the hymnody of all ages are to be found there.
