What reading level is Varia Readings From Rare Books book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We hear of one author who, very rightly, will not permit his own books to enter his own house ; and if others have any conscience, surely their old age will be made miserable by remembering that they have used the precious moments of their youth in inditing not a good matter, but a contemptible fiction, which the further it penetrates the more deeply will it corrupt.
This worship of highwaymen, for instance, once all the rage, is a modern invention, and proceeded from one of the most conceited ...and foolish of brains. We shall not argue upon the matter, because we have only to place the real and ideal side by side to show that the writer is as foolish as false. Take honest Henry Fielding from the shelf, and people will find in his day, at least, the robber was painted in his true colours as a ruffian of the lowest iype of too low a calibre for any but the most brutal pas- sions and the most vulgar selfishness. But take " Paul Clifford " or " Jack Shephard, " the creations of more modern brains, in hand ; we shall find that these low wretches are gifted with the sentimental feelings of the hero of romance, and often ejaculate sentences worthy of the cynic philosophy of a Rochefoucauld or a Chesterfield.
