What reading level is Harvard Studies in Classical Philology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

556-7, ov pkv ovv fu 7rpo(rcSoica9, oTiif KoOopvovi ^X^y ^^ yviavai a in; In these words we may have a suggestion both of their size, if they helped to disguise, and of their unfitness for such a man as Heracles. This is only a later incident in the story which begins with Ar. Ran. 47 (see p. 124). The argument which Crusius proposes on this passage is that KoOopvoi was the shoe of Dionysus and became in time the tragic actor's shoe. Twice elsewhere, however, in Aristophanes we find it the natu...ral shoe for a woman, in jEccI. 346 being carefully contrasted to the hus- band's ip,pdi. It is reasonable, then, that we should expect Aristo- phanes to be consistent in his usage and that we should find something effeminate in the nature of the wearer of the KoSopvoi of the two above passages. And what else is Dionysus? More effeminate than most of the goddesses themselves ! Crowned with leaves of the vine ! Stagger- ing along with the thyrsus in one hand and the cantharus in the other I A robe of saffron over his shoulders and "Persian shoes" — the product of the luxurious Orient from which he came — embracing his legs !
