What reading level is A History of Greek Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The contrast was great between the terrifying fiends with the confused and confusing denunciations of their song, and the majestic, awe-inspiring command of the suddenly appearing god, whose words were doubtless accom- panied by an authoritative gesture. It was in passages like this doubt- less that the artistic arrangement of the actors on the Greek stage was most carefully arranged, and that the opportunity for a magnificent tableau was used in the fullest measure. Here the god, after silenci...ng the song of the Furies and bidding them leave his sanctuary, listens, for a few moments, to their arguments, in which they take a much more reasonable ground, and they part from Apollo almost as friends. They say: " Great thy name among the thrones of Zeus ; But I, his mother's blood constraining me.
Will this man chase, and track him like a hound." To which he answers : " And I will help him and my suppliant free ; For dreadful among gods and mortals too The suppliant's curse, should I abandon him." But this deliberate statement of the tragic conflict soon yields to far intenser feelings.
