What reading level is Titian a Romance of Venice volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some, foiled in worldly ambition, retreated upon study as a means by which to win that knowledge which is power. Some, baffled in the game of life, bore wounded spirits to their retirement and became happier in the endeavour to be wiser. Many were mere pretenders, assuming the name without pos- sessing the endowments of scholarship. But there were some like Bacon, Trithemius, Savonarola and Agrippa who cast their hearts into the quest of knowledge, and wli jse literary acquirements and scientif...ic discoveries prove 138 TITIAN.
that they did not vainly dig into the mine of thought. These were the true devotees for they loved knowledge for its own sake. Others might use it as the means of gaining worldly wealth or honours ; but these men had far loftier and more extended aims. Much, it is true, of their study was unprofitable, (if we judge by the present standard) ; many of their professions exceeded their ability of perform- ance, but this is certain, if they deceived others it was because they oftener were self-deceived.
