What reading level is The Pursuit of Reason book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then it was from the point of view of practice, of experience, and to enquire into the 'content' of the supernatural Judgment. I refer to them again here because we are now concerned with the growth of metaphysical theology and its internal contra- dictions.
After all, the ' god ' of metaphysics stands in no worse case than the ' matter' of metaphysics. With matter (too) it is im- possible to support in the sphere of pure reason that which experience gives us ; so soon as that experience is ere...cted into an abstract idea. In the region of metaphysic it is easy to show that the qualities which we attribute to matter cannot be in matter (first the secondary qualities, colour, smell, have to go : but the primary qualities, shape, hardness, etc. Soon follow) : so in the end that matter can only be in or can only be ' thought ' (Easy, I say. The proof is however not easy, and it is im- possible to express in a sentence the sum of the idealist con- tention i). Not the less is it impossible for men outside the region of metaphysics to assimilate the idealist position, and ' matter ' as signifying something unspiritual, external, the con- verse of ' spirit, ' will always remain a very definite summary of experience.
