What reading level is The Larger Aspects of Socialism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Religion we have seen was in the last century regarded mainly in its theoretical aspect as a doctrine. Greek religion, for example, meant to most educated persons Greek mythology. Yet even a cursory examina- tion shows that neither Greek nor Roman had any creed or dogma, any hard and fast formulation of belief. In the Greek Mysteries only we find what we should call a Confiteor, and this is not a confession of faith but an avowal of rites performed. When the religion of primi- tive peoples came... to be examined it was speedily seen that though vague beliefs necessarily abound, definite creeds are practically non-existent. Ritual is dominant and imperative. . . . Popular belief says, I think, therefore I act; modern scientific psychology says, I act (or rather, r^act to outside stimulus), and so I come to think. Thus there is set going a recurrent series : act and thought become in their turn stimuli to fresh acts and thoughts. " * The modern study of religions has also come to see that in the psychology and the life of primitive man, and also of early civilizations, the field of religion is not to be marked off from the other practical and psychical activities.
