What reading level is Ralph Waldo Emerson How to Know Him book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And democracy is an empty name to one who has never felt the thrill of the idea that lies behind it.
In looking back from the vantage ground of several centuries, it is possible to see how a gener ation of men may be obsessed by an idea that determines all their achievements. We may see that idea lose hold upon the mind of the next generation, and lo all the mighty works lose all interest. It is as if one moment we saw the face of the Great Being all aquiver with interest. Then suddenly the lig...ht fades and he turns away from the work of his own hands.
But it is not so easy to realize that the mighty works of our own day owe their existence, and THE QUIET REVOLUTIONIST 149 depend for their security on the same transitory support of thought. They represent our present thinking, and when we come to think differently they will disappear.
"Ah, " but we say, "we go down to hard facts. \Ye build upon the granite of actuality, not on anything so unsubstantial as mere thought. " Emerson would answer.
