What reading level is The Social Meaning of Modern Religious Movements in England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is, however, no transferring the authority of a vital experience to another soul. You may and should bear witness to the truth that has moved you, but the same truth may in very different garb have power over others, who even deny that truth as you state it in words.
The danger to England's religious life was the identification of religion with either one of the phases best known in the beginning of the century. The formalism of the Established Church was set off to some degree by the act...ive but shallow Evangelicalism that pervaded one 180 ENGLISH RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS wing of it, and nearly all Dissenting churches. In men's impatience with stupid and selfish con- servatism there was danger that even thinking men should identify religion with mere reaction, intellectual and political.
This is seen in the early work of Wordsworth, and the revolt of Shelley and Byron furnishes evidence of the drift toward an irreligious de- mocracy. There were none in the ranks of Evangelicalism fitted to guide this wayward, searching generation in its intellectual seeking for some highest good.
