What reading level is The Principles of Revolution a Study in Ideals book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
94 Tolstoi and Christianity in throne-rooms : for even a back-parlour in a poor man's home may show a husband tyrannizing or parents over- bearing to children. The spirit of domination is every- where, and no external changes can destroy it. Until that desire is eradicated, we cannot make the next step forward ; and no economic theorizing, no new system of government, no more subtle intelligence will destroy the desire for domination. That is why Tolstoi was so insistent in his statement that t...he only genuine revolu- tion was religious. " The fundamental cause of the impending revolution, as of all past and future revolu- tions, is a religious one "; ^ and therefore no transformation of society will be adequate which stops short of a new religious vision. A survey of all the modern world reveals no part which is not corrupted by the practice of a savage ideal of life and character.
Looking round, then, for valid standards of life and for a guide to practice which would not leave a man starving in a desert, Tolstoi found them — everywhere !
