What reading level is Lectures On the British Poets volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The tran- sitions must often be sudden and violent: one set of feelings must be laid down and another taken up with a promptness and dexterity which, to employ a familiar illustration, may be likened to the attempt to accom- modate our raiment to the changes of a fickle climate with its hasty revolutions of heat and cold. Each poet of original genius dwells in an atmosphere of his own, and he who seeks to know him must learn to breathe it, whether it be pure or noxious : he must needs live in i...t for a brief space.
But I can fancy that some of you are beginning to ask, Why this unwonted preface ? Unwonted, because, whatever sins of tediousness may rest upon me, there has been no introductory loitering; for the first sentence of my lecture has, I believe, for the most part, taken you straightway into the very subject of it. If a different style of introduction is given to the present lecture, it is because in no instance has the transition been so toilsome to my mind. Between the requisite sympathy with tlu> genius of the poet I last parted with, and that with him I am approaching, lies a wide and dreary gulf.
