What reading level is Aristotle On the Art of Poetry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Scars, or external tokens, like necklaces, or to take another sort of instance, the ark in theDiscovery in _Tyro_. Even these, however, admit of two uses, a betterand a worse; the scar of Ulysses is an instance; the Discovery ofhim through it is made in one way by the nurse and in another by theswineherds. A Discovery using signs as a means of assurance is lessartistic, as indeed are all such as imply reflection; whereas onebringing them in all of a sudden, as in the _Bath-story_, is of a bette...rorder. Next after these are (2) Discoveries made directly by the poet;which are inartistic for that very reason; e. G. Orestes' Discovery ofhimself in _Iphigenia_: whereas his sister reveals who she is by theletter, Orestes is made to say himself what the poet rather thanthe story demands. This, therefore, is not far removed from thefirst-mentioned fault, since he might have presented certain tokensas well. Another instance is the 'shuttle's voice' in the _Tereus_ ofSophocles. (3) A third species is Discovery through memory, from a man'sconsciousness being awakened by something seen or heard.
