What reading level is Talk At a Country House Fact And Fiction book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
T/tr Squire. If they only would use them more than they do ! The true critic is a judge. Ili^ business is to bring all (lie ascertainable facts of the case into clear light and order, 196 Talk at a Country House and then either to pronounce a judgment, or to declare that no judgment is possible for want of sufficient evidence. He is not, in the latter case, to make up the deficiency by fancies drawn from his inner consciousness to supply the lack of facts.
Foster. Is not this the divination of ...Nie- buhr?
The Squire. No, no. I believe Niebuhr himself may have sometimes mistaken the one for the other, but they are not the same thing. Divination in history is seeing into the life of things, not the dissection of a dead body and the labeling of the several parts. But there is another saying of Niebuhr's which is more to the point. He says that when in Rome you may often see existing walls with marble frag- ments of columns and cornices built into them ; and it is certain that these are the portions of some older buildings, temples or palaces perhaps, but it is impossible to say what those buildings were.
