What reading level is The Revival of Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Well, no sane person will do so at all without stating grounds for suspicion, an inconsistency among the witnesses, or a prima facie improbability in their report. These grounds may be judged adequate or inadequate, but surely it would be well to have them examined. It is not in the long run convincing to argue by pooh-poohs. Till the objection has been refuted and the doubt allayed, may it not be modestly claimed that the question is in being and the rules of civilized debate should be observe...d ?
And how ought the question to be stated ? This is of the heart of the matter. Just what Criticism has forgotten is its chief duty : to draw the issues properly for trial.
I venture to suggest to you that the right and reason- able way of stating the case is not ' Here's so-and-so, he's a bore, always blundering over sleeping dogs. He has the cheek to suggest that he has found something which we have all walked past every day for the last 1, 000 years. This must be stopped. And anyhow emendation is quite out of date, it is pre-German.
