What reading level is The Conventional Lies of Our Civilization book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
stition and folly of short-sighted men. Fraternity? Oh, this is a sublime word, the ideal goal of human progress, a presage of the condition of our race at the time when it attains to the summit of its fullest development, a time still very remote. But equality? That is a mere creature of the imagination for which there is no room in any sen- sible discussion. In justice to the period preceding the French Revolution it must be said that it never discussed and proclaimed social equality, but mer...ely personal equal- ity before the laws. But the authors and leaders of the great Revolution did nofe publish this distinction; they sought for a striking and an appealing word, and in their famous motto, sacrified accuracy to brevity. Thus "Ega- lit6", without any modifying term, appeared in the triad, of the revolutionary programme, and the multitudes, who are apt to repeat party cries without reflection, adopted the term as meaning equality in the sense in which it is accepted by the democrats of the Parisian beer tunnels.
