What reading level is ... Ben Jonson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is enough to say that this rustic play com- bines Jonson's regularity of structure with the fancy which had sported so freely in the best of his masques.
The prologue, as we have it, was written about 1637 in the last months of the poet's life. But it is scarcely credible that the still extant portion of the drama can have been composed at that epoch. We have at any rate to deplore the accident — whether of Jonson's death before the piece was finished, or of the carelessness with which his M...SS. were handled after his decease — whereby English dramatic literature has been defrauded f 2 68 Ben Jonson of what would otherwise have been its most ingeniously constructed and firmly executed pastoral play.
After this summary review of Jonson's dramatic works, it will be possible to arrange them in the fol- lowing groups. First of all we may place the two tragedies, c Sejanus ' and 6 Catiline/ with the fragment of ' Mortimer.' The masques, triumphs, entertain- ments, barriers, form a second class.
