What reading level is Through Scylla And Charybdis Or the Old Theology And the New book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Our nurse cannot always be our pope. For higher educational ends, artifice has to come to the relief of Nature. For the crowd is not society, but a factor in society its raw material ; nor is the crowd-mind identical with the public mind. Spontaneously, in 260 SCYLLA AND CHARYBDIS regard to every interest or department of culture, society falls into classes the progressive and the stationary, the active and the receptive, the original and the imitative. Needless to say, the original are few and... the imitative many, for " many are called but few are chosen" is the law of Nature. But the law of Grace, if not also of rational Nature, is that the few are for the sake of the many ; and those that have, for the service of those that have not. Confirma fratres is the com- mand imposed upon them by their gifts. The Greek ideal of an aristocracy preying on a serf-class failed because it did not rise above the law of mere animal nature, the law of egotistic competition. In a deeper sense, then, it is " natural " that the crowd-mind should be slowly educated, raised and controlled by the in- fluence of the active-minded and progressive minority.
