What reading level is Studies in Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But no language can suf- fer more by translation than the French, a fact witnessed to perpetually by the adoption of count I0 8 STUDIES IK CRITICISM. Less French phrases into all languages. Under no circumstances, however, should we allow ourselves to be absorbed in the external attractions of this great Literature, altogether charming and alluring though they be. It is necessary to penetrate even beyond the semblance of the exoteric significance so inevitably associated with those attractions.... The aim and object of French Literature is not to please, but to instruct ; not to delight the fancy, but to train the reasoning faculty ; not to excite the feel- ings, but to sound the intellect. The French do not live to read, to dream, speculate or sigh ; they read to live, to know all that is in human life and to enrich the consciousness by this universal knowl- edge. Hence we find that " nowhere has Literature had as much efficacy as in France, " to quote the words of one of her most eloquent writers, " nowhere has it had as much perseverance.
