What reading level is The Japanese Letters of Lafcadio Hearn book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I liked the games in Izumo better, because of the beautiful old loyal spirit they showed, love of the Emperor, love of country. But these were interesting, too. What especially impressed me was the military song chanted by two hundred young men, all keeping time with their feet and bringing out the last syl- lable of each line with a report of emphasis like a crash of musketry. I thought I saw for an instant a flash of Japanese soul, — the old military spirit.
Oh! what pains should be taken to ...preserve it! — and yet those in power do so little to cultivate it. I could really cry with vexation when I think of the indifference, — the ignorant, blind indifference of the Educational Powers to nourish the old love of country and love of the Emperor. The fencing was rather savage, but quite skilful. I am convinced, however, that the French school founded by the TO BASIL HALL CHAMBERLAIN 185 terrible mulatto, Jean Louis, is the only one that will survive. Point will always win against edge.
