What reading level is A New Light On the Renaissance Displayed in Contemporary Emblems: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In that Titanic struggle nothing is more surprising than the strength and duration of the influence exercised by the mediaeval romances. Upon deliberate consideration my judgment is that a concealed instruction and allegory was originally intended in many of these ancient fables.
As Bacon continues in the Wisdom of the Ancients : " I CONCLUSION 227 receive them not as the product of the age or invention of the poets, but as sacred relics. Gentle whispers and the breath of better times that from... the traditions of more ancient nations came at length into the flutes and trumpets of the Greeks." For " Greeks " we may substitute " French " ; indeed all the evidence tends to the conclusion that France, and not Italy, was the nursing mother of the Renaissance. The word romance originally designated a story written in romariy i.e. eleventh or twelfth century French instead of Latin.
The "Song of Roland," the Legends of the St. Grail and the Romaunt of the Rose were French. The beautiful culture of Provence which at first permeated Southern Europe, and eventually the whole continent, with a perfume of poetry and gentle living, was essentially French.
