What reading level is Pioneers of Evolution From Thales to Huxley. With An Intermediate Chapter On the Causes of Arrest of the Movement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Far-reaching as were the areas which it covered and the effects which it wrought, its quarrel with the Church of Rome was not because of that Church's attitude to- ward freedom of thought. On the Continent it was a protest of nobler minds against the corruptions fostered by the Papacy; in England, it was personal and political in origin, securing popular support by its anti-sacerdotal 'character, and its appeal to na- tional irritation against foreign control. But, both here and abroad, it soug...ht mending rather than end- ing; " not to vary in any jot from the faith Catholic." It disputed the claim of the Church to be the sole interpreter of Scripture, and contended that such interpretation was the right and duty of the indi- vidual. But it would not admit the right of the individual to call in question the authority of the Bible itself: to that book alone must a man go for knowledge of things temporal as of things spiritual.
So that the Reformation was but an exchange of THE ARREST OF INQUIRY, 87 fetters, or, as Huxley happily puts it, the scraping of a little rust off the chains which still bound the mind.
