What reading level is The Philosophy of Modernism (In Its Connection With Music) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nor is this all. Since doctors are now recognising the efficacy of music as a healing agency, notably in connection with nervous and mental diseases — and, moreover, in the face of so many experiments and researches conducted by such scientists as Richet, Charcot, Sir William Crookes, and other eminent men — why should we despise the word " magic," because it was at one time merely used as a convenient generalisation for a certain class of phenomena ?
If the poet chooses to employ simple words,... such as witchcraft, obsession, ecstasy, sorcery, and magic, while the scientist prefers such erudite appellations as telekinesis, telasthesia, springomyelitis, etc., to enlarge his already over- burdened vocabulary, does it imply that one is any nearer to truth than the other ? In fact, without extravagance, we might aptly say that the only difference between the truth of the artist and the truth of the scientist is one of words : conceding at the same time, however, that the artist is the first to win the race of Truth itself But to return to the particular magic of music and its rationale.
