What reading level is Chapters On Spanish Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Here and now, it is enough to say that Calderon's career, so far as we can trace it, was one of uninterrupted success. Unfortunately, at present, we can only sketch his biography in outline. Within a year of his death, a short life of him was published by his admirer and editor, Juan de Vera Tassis y Villarroel ; but, as Vera Tassis was thirty or forty years younger than Calderon, he naturally knew nothing of the dramatist's early circumstances. He begins badly with a blunder as to the date of ...Calderon's birth, shows himself untrustworthy in matters of fact, and indulges too freely in flatulent pane- CALDER6N 185 gyric. For the present we are condemned to make bricks with only a few wisps of straw ; but if, as seems likely, Dr. Perez Pastor is as fortunate with Calderon as he was with Cervantes, many a blank will be filled in before long.
Pedro Calderon de la Barca was born at Madrid on January 17, 1600. He became an orphan at an early age. His mother, who was of Flemish origin, died in l6lO; his father, who was Secretary of the Council of the Treasury, seems to have offended his first wife's family by marrying again, was excluded from administering a chaplaincy in their gift, and died in 1615.
