What reading level is Walt Whitmans Poetry a Study a Selection book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If we cannot love the actual average man for his own actual aver age sake, we have not been initiated into the mysteries of comradeship. But how are we to compel ourselves to love him if, as a matter of fact, he does not happen to attract us? If we love him before we know him, we are idealising him, loving him for the sake of the ideal nature that is in him and yet not of him. Whitman would, I presume, have us love the actual average man at sight, but it is in the highest degree unlikely that w...e shall find ourselves able to do so. The truth of the matter is that the sense of comradeship, when divorced from love of the ideal, is unworthy of the sacred name of love. * At best it is a feeling of being * It is probable that in Whitman s " buried life " the sense of comradeship is never wholly divorced from love of the ideal. What he loves in each of his innumerable " comrades " is undoubtedly that common element which he miscalls the " average. " I have else where suggested that the " average " is really the " promise and potency" of the ideal.
