What reading level is Lord Dundreary a Memoir of Edward Askew Sothern book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sothern reminded us more of his Jason in the tragedy of ' Medea, ' or an insane gladiator who has been mesmerised, than a Grecian. " There are many interesting allusions to his performance as The Kinchin in " The Flowers of the Forest, " which was evidently a very popular one (remarkable in its disguise, and admirable in its minutiw) in America, and which he played after as well as before his Dundreary success; and there is a little be- fore-the-curtain speech in connection with the last-named ...impersonation that is well worth recording. It was at Albany that, having re- sponded to an enthusiastic call, Sothern said: " Ladies and gentlemen, I hardly think it cus- tomary to make a speech on the first evening of a performance, such things being generally kept in reserve until the evening of a benefit. But since you have insisted upon it, I must heartily thank you for your attention and laughter at one of the most absurd perform- ances ever seen on the stage. I have endeav- oured to make Lord Dundreary a caricature — a burlesque of the broadest type — upon the silly and contemptible fops we everywhere meet.
