SAT
Which excerpt from "how should one read a book?" best states the author’s purpose? most commonly we come to books with blurred and divided minds, asking of fiction that it shall be true, of poetry that it shall be false, of biography that it shall be flattering, of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices. But if you open your mind as widely as possible, then signs and hints of almost imperceptible fineness, from the twist and turn of the first sentences, will bring you into the presence of a human being unlike any other. Thus to go from one great novelist to another—from jane austen to hardy, from peacock to trollope, from scott to meredith—is to be wrenched and uprooted; to be thrown this way and then that. But a glance at the heterogeneous company on the shelf will show you that writers are very seldom "great artists"; far more often a book makes no claim to be a work of art at all.

Cesare Beccaria's school.
Explanation:
The Cesare Beccaria school of thought is against the use of torture and the death penalty as forms of punishment. Beccaria's major contribution to criminology came in 1764 with his book, The Crimes and Penalties. In this book, this strand of thought faced the system of absolute monarchies and cruel punishments, thus seeking to rationalize and humanize punishments, as they should be just and proportionate to the crimes committed. Thus, this school believed that no offense was too large to be punished with the death penalty, being a school fervently against the death penalty.
