What reading level is Ossian in Germany: Bibliography, General Survey. Ossian's Influence Upon Klopstock And the Bards book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Wenn man ihn liest, scheint er pedantisch und langweilig ; wenn man ihn aber gelesen hat, und sich wieder an ihn erinnert, wird er gross und maj estjitisch. Dann glauben wir einen riesenhaften Geist Ossians zu sehen." — W. Menzel.
The subject of Ossian's influence upon Klopstock, were it to re- ceive exhaustive treatment, would greatly exceed the space we can allot to it in a general discussion of the effect that Ossian produced in Germany, and we shall therefore confine ourselves here largely
...to generalities and attempt only a broad sketch of Klopstock's atti- tude toward the Gaelic bard. If we are to accept literally the statement made by Klopstock in a letter to Gerstenberg,^ to the effect that he did not adopt the mythology of his forefathers until after the appearance of the "Lied eines Skalden " (1766), we ought to begin our discussion with Gerstenberg. It appears, how- ever, that Klopstock gave some attention to old Germanic history and mythology previous to i766.''^ At any rate, he fell under Ossian's influence two years before, and set the example to a num- ber of others.
