What reading level is The Idler in France book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
_The Imaginary Conversations_ could never have been written amid thevexatious interruptions incidental to one mingling much in the scenesof busy life; for the voices of the sages of old with whom, beneath hisown vines, Landor loves to commune, would have been inaudible in theturmoil of a populous town, and their secrets would not have beenrevealed to him. The friction of society may animate the man of talentinto its exercise, but I am persuaded that solitude is essential to theperfect developem...ent of genius.
A letter from Sir William Gell, and, like all his letters, veryamusing. Yet how different from Landor's! Both written beneath thesunny sky of Italy, both scholars, and nearly of the same age, nevertheless, how widely different are their letters!
Gell's filled with lively and comic details of persons, seldom fail tomake me laugh; Landor's, wholly devoted to literary subjects, set methinking. Cell would die of _ennui_ in the solitude Landor hasselected; Landor would be chafed into irritation in the constantroutine of visiting and dining-out in which Gell finds amusement.
