What reading level is Castelvetros Theory of Poetry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE TRAGIC HERO 115 conclusion is refuted by experience : he has known a play win great applause until the dis- covery that its subject was entirely fictitious gave the spectators great displeasure, " just as if they had had a jewel and thinking it good, had rejoiced, but rinding it artificial, had been cast into sorrow; whence the conclusion, the actions of kings and their names ought to be historically true and not imagined. " l It is to be noted that here again, as in other instances, Castel...vetro has changed his point of view. His theory of the necessity of a historic basis in tragedy is developed entirely a priori : now he is referring it to the feelings excited in the audience, that is, he is putting it to a practical test. If the necessity of a historic basis has any fundamental justification, it is only in this second consideration. As Corneille puts it, " c'est 1'histoire qui persuade avec empire. " Evidently Castelvetro regards his theory as justified from both points of view.
