What reading level is The Earlier Essays of James Russell Lowell book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But they turn to blood and coloring in his style, and give a freshness of complexion that is forever charming. In Thoreau much seems yet to be foreign and unassimilated, • sho'\;viing itself in symptoms of indigestion. A preacher-up s of Nature, we now and then detect under the surly and stoic garb something of the sophist and the sentimentalizer.
We are far from implying that this was conscious on his part. But it is much easier for a man to impose on himself when he measures only mth himself.... A greater f amiharity lo with ordinary men would have done Thoreau good, by showing him how many fine qualities are common to the race. The radical vice of this theory of life was, that he confounded physical with spiritual remoteness from men.
One is far enough withdrawn from his fellows if he keep 15 himself clear of their weaknesses. He is not so truly with- drawn as exiled, if he refuse to share in their strength.
It is a morbid self-consciousness that pronounces the world of men empty and worthless before trying it, the instinctive evasion of one who is sensible of some innate weakness, and 20 retorts the accusation of it before any has made it but him- self.
