What reading level is Studies in Literature And Style book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this respect, the popular style is second to none in its conditions and its value, in that its first essential is the first characteristic of all acceptable style. In this respect, all authors, however intel- lectual or literary or forceful, should sit at the feet of the deservedly popular writer, if so be they may be sure that what they write is, first of all, under- standable. If not so, it is unphilosophical, unliter- ary and useless.
II. We note a further feature of the style before us, ...in that it is Timely and Practical. The popu- lar style must deal with what Dr. Holland was wont to call " Topics of the Time ; " with what the general public are pleased to call — living issues.
There is an ever- more emphatic protest, on the part of common readers, against the visionary, abstruse and unpractical in literature. The province of fiction apart, in which the unreal is understood to be the staple of material, readers are clamor- ously calling for a business-like, an every-day order of prose writing ; marked by the presence of current questions, discussed in the modern, unconventional spirit, and having reference to ends specifically local and immediate.
