What reading level is Religion And the Modern Mind And Other Essays in Modernism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If we theorize at all independently we conceive being not as naturally good, but as becomingly so; not as perfectly wholesome, all evil being so much dead wood, but as painfully divided, evil being so much live passion to be mastered and downed by the cooler passion of sympathetic and socialistic aims.
I would there were time to compare these two ideals of human destiny ; to compare them odi- ously; to affirm my entire and unreserved sub- scription to the humaner culture of the non-Hel- lenic E...uropeans. Such declaration of faith in the altruistic impulses and passions of the mod- ern mind might do some good in these days when so much is being written in celebration of Greek ideals. But I must content myself with the sim- ple fact that these Hellenic ideals are no longer native; we simply cannot at least not natu- rally aim at being. Most men of the modern mind would appear as ludicrous clowns if clothed in the ill-fitting modes of the Greeks. 1 i Perhaps Marathon races are in point. I imagine the shores of Elysium are lined with athletic shades who wit- ness with heavenly laughter our modern performances of that once great and natural event.
