What reading level is The History of Freedom And Other Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But undoubtedly we may have committed error? in judgment, and admitted errors of fact ; such mistakes are unavoidable in secular matters, and no one is exempt from them in spiritual things except by the constant assistance of Divine grace. Our wish and purpose are not to deny faults, but to repair them ; to instruct, not to disturb our readers ; to take down the barriers which shut out our Protestant countrymen from the Church, not to raise up divisions within her pale ; and to confirm and deep...en, not to weaken, alter, or circumscribe the faith of Catholics.
448 ESSAYS ON LIBERTY The most exalted methods of serving religion do not lie in the path of a periodical which addresses a general audience. The appliances of the spiritual life belong to a more retired sphere that of the priesthood, of the sacraments, of religious offices ; that of prayer, meditation, and self-examination. They are profaned by exposure, and choked by the distractions of public affairs. The world cannot be taken into the confidence of our inner life, nor can the discussion of ascetic morality be compli- cated with the secular questions of the day.
