What reading level is The New History; Essays Illustrating the Modern Historical Outlook book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The complex syncretism which resulted in orthodox Christianity has been laid bare, as well as the very ancient and primitive superstitions which were incorporated into the theology of the church fathers.
THE NEW ALLIES OF fflSTORY 91 I have been told by M. Solomon Reinach, the dis- tinguished director of the Museum of St. Germain-en- Laye, that when Mommsen visited the collections some years ago, he had never heard either of the ice age or of totemism ! He appeared to think that the terms might... be the ingenious discoveries of M. Reinach himself. Now, Mommsen is properly ranked among the most extraordinary historians of modern times. The mass of his work and its quality are familiar to us all. Nevertheless, his ignorance of two of the commonplaces of prehistoric archaeology and anthropology prevented him from seeing the Roman civilization in its proper perspective and from thoroughly grasping its religious, and perhaps even the legal, phenomena. Man, as Henry Adams has so neatly expressed it, is now viewed as a "function" of the ice age during a very long period.
