What reading level is The Art of Literature; a Series of Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If this were not so, it would be difficult to see why his thoughts should not perish like those of other men.
F 82 THE AKT OF LITERATUBE Metaphors and similes are of great value, in so far as they explain an unknown relation by a known one.
Even the more detailed simile which grows into a parable or an allegory, is nothing more than the exhibition of some relation in its simplest, most visible and palpable form. The growth of ideas rests, " at bottom, upon similes ; because ideas arise by a pro...cess of combining the similarities and neglecting the differences between things. Further, intelligence, in the strict sense of the word, ultimately consists in a seizing of relations ; and a clear and pure grasp of relations is aU the more often attained when the comparison is made between cases that he wide apart from one another, and between things of quite difier- ent nature. As long as a relation is known to me as existing only in a single case, I have none but an individual idea of it — ^in other words, only an intui- tive or perceptive knowledge of it ; but as soon as I see the same relation in two difEerent cases, I have a general idea of its whole nature, and this is a deeper and more perfect knowledge.
