What reading level is The Spirit of Modern German Literature : Lectures Delivered Before the University of Wisconsin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In a word, Thomas Mann tells us the history of the souls and nerves of men from the July revolution to our own insistent and complex civilization. Yet when I schematize the book thus and interpret it in the light of one idea, I am conscious of doing it a grave injustice. For it is so abundantly full of life and of the color and stir of the world. And it is so full of men and women, duly subordinated to Antonie and Thomas and the older Buddenbrooks, but carry- ing on so true and full-bodied a li...fe in these vital pages. Yet Mann never skips, as Dickens did, from group to group of characters. The rhythm of the narrative is unbroken, the point of view unwavering, but all these many voices blend into the continuous rumor of hope and grief which is human life. If modem German literature had produced but this one book, it would not stand ignobly or ashamed among the modem litera- tures of the world.
Digitized by VjOOQ IC 52 MODERN GERMAN LITERATURE I must speak of one more phase of the search for reality in modem Greraian literature — the at- tempt to know, by intensive analysis, the real na- ture of the life of the emotions.
