What reading level is The German Mind As Reflected in Their Literature From 1870 to 1914 Together Wit book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It strains the will of a man almost to breaking point. While other men in civil walks of life may feel a purpose in every hardest task that they impose on them- selves, or that is imposed on them by others, the soldier on his "draughty parade ground" feels himself a futility except when w-ar is at least in sight. There arises then a motive for war, not only among subalterns, but among those higher in authority, who perceive the inevitable cor- ruption and decadence which is almost inherent in a... military caste in time of peace. Small wonder that officers like Lieutenant Bilse, not to mention civilians, were led to make disclosures of evils of whose existence every thinking mind must have been well aware.
Bilse's book, " . 4^^. '? einer kleinen Garnison, " which gave a lurid picture of a small garrison town in time of peace and of the decadence of the officer caste, need only be referred to, because it had a succes de scandale out of all proportion to its literary or other merits. It was translated into English, and caused a malicious joy in circles which congratulated themselves that they were not even as these Germans.
