What reading level is On the Vice of Novel Reading. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is the pyramidal bulk of human nature with its finestbrain, true to anatomic principles, at the top. That radiance at thesummit is the delight and the aspiration of all below. As it rises asslowly as growth of a coral reef it increases the courage of thosebelow in proportion as they are near.
But the whole bulk is alive with the bacteria of animalism, underincreasing control as it rises, still with the ferocity, rapacity andselfish passions of the gloomy mass at the bottom and forever inrevo...lt. Is this not proved by history, written and unwritten? Is itnot proved by the ghastly secrets of individual introspection that mennever reveal or admit to others; secrets guarded by a system ofconventions so impenetrable and vast that to attempt to personalize itin the sneaking figure of Hypocrisy would be as absurd as to try toenlarge the significance of an ivory chessman by setting it up on alady's jewel box and naming it Moloch. All men feel how much of themis brute and how much is reason; but it is the unimpartable secret ofhuman society whose betrayal has been rendered impossible by universaldenials in advance, enacted in to what we call criminal laws, underwhich admissions are denied by the brand of proportionate infamies, todemonstrate that the traitor who has acted or spoken has not put intoexpression the secrets of the mass.
