What reading level is The Invincible Alliance And Other Essays Political Social And Literary book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I20 THE INVINCIBLE ALLIANCE Russian writers have possessed dramatic and psychological power, but the want of the rhyth- mic quality in the novelists of that country is now driving the Russian public from literature to music, the last refuge from realistic negation.
IMPRESSIONS OF ITALY THE bane of the modern travelling world is to be found in the tendency to see people, climate, countries, and art through someone's tinted spectacles, and, above all, by the aid of someone's guide-book. Italy has... suffered more than any other country from the guide-book pest. Few sightseers are able to give you a vivid per- sonal impression of people and things in that country. Even learned travellers, before com- ing to Italy, think the proper thing to do is to steep their minds in books about this or that art, this or that city, until they are so full of the opin- ions and sensations of others that they have no place for personal feeling or personal opinion. It would be instructive to find out how many Anglo- Americans have steeped their brains in Ruskin before coming to Italy, how many Germans have been hypnotised by Goethe's impressions, how many novel readers have made themselves drunk on Madame de Stael's Corinne before seeing this country.
