What reading level is Some Aspects of Puberty Fasting Among the Ojibwa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His first experience is regarded as bad. Thus it continues for some time. The faster generally does not get his dream until the sixth to the tenth night. Sometimes a dream obtained even then is regarded as of bad omen, and the faster must start again. He is encouraged to have patience and wait until the right spirit comes. Sometimes this takes two to three months. The dream that is to benefit him generally comes in the following form. The faster, in his dream, finds himself in great trouble or,... at times, he believes he is killed, and some animal comes to his rescue. This animal, he believes, will come to his rescue in similar situations throughout his life.
DISCUSSION.
We will discuss first the contents of the preceding experiences and then the relation of the fasting experience to the faster, on the one hand, and to his cultural environment, on the other, as it is embodied especially in the person of his parents and grandparents.
Even a cursory perusal of the experiences shows that, as one would have been led to expect, all are cast in a definite mould.
