What reading level is The Faith And Progress of the Brahmo Somaj book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Marriages between different castes, whenever deemed eligible, were solemnized. The sacred 294 Social Reforms in responsibilities of marriage were explained to the parties bound in wedlock, seriously and effectively, and all foolish expense and un- necessary pomp were excluded as far as desir- able. But one terrible difficulty underlay all these reforms. The Brahmo marriage was illegal. The beneficial changes introduced were against the spirit and letter of Hindu law. And this meant the illegiti...macy of cliild- ren, and endless confusion in the descent and inheritance of property. The opinions of the most eminent Sanskritists and lawyers were given to assure the public of the illegality. Public opinion was elicited, and went to prove the same thing. And the Brahmos were there- fore compelled to memorialize Government for a legislative enactment " to relieve them from their legal incapacity to contract marriages ac- cording to their own ritual. " This memorial was strongly opposed by the Hindu community, and still more strongly by the conservative Brahmo party under the leadership of Babu Devendra Nath Tagore.
