What reading level is A History of Elizabethan Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cardinal Monticelso is incontinent of tongue and singularlyfeeble in deed, --for no rational man would, after describing Vittoria as akind of pest to mankind, have condemned her to a punishment which wasapparently little more than residence in a rather disreputable but by nomeans constrained boarding-house, and no omnipotent pope would have letLudivico loose with a clear inkling of his murderous designs. But whenthese criticisms and others are made, _The White Devil_ remains one of themost glor...ious works of the period. Vittoria is perfect throughout; and inthe justly-lauded trial scene she has no superior on any stage. Brachianois a thoroughly lifelike portrait of the man who is completely besottedwith an evil woman. Flamineo I have spoken of, and not favourably; yet inliterature, if not in life, he is a triumph; and above all the absorbingtragic interest of the play, which it is impossible to take up withoutfinishing, has to be counted in. But the real charm of _The White Devil_ isthe wholly miraculous poetry in phrases and short passages which itcontains.
