What reading level is Shakespeare And Germany book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The substantive Heim, equivalent to the ' home ' of the English language, is due to the translators of Shakespeare; for- merly it was used in German only adverbially, in words like heimkehren, ' return home '. Halle, as corresponding to English * hall ', had died out in Germany shortly after Luther, it is not found in literary use for centuries ; but in Klopstock, a notable ad- mirer of Shakespeare, the word reappears, and bears the same ex- alted signification, ' hall of a castle ', as it does... in Shakespeare, and not that of ' entrance hall ', as in everyday English. Even the use of the word Sect for champagne arose in connexion with Shakespeare. In the eighteenth century Sect was employed by the German only for heavy wines such as were made from dried berries in Spain and in the Canary Islands ; in this sense the word is employed by Shakespeare too, when he makes Falstaff such a lover of * sack '. But when the Falstaff actor Ludwig Devrient in Berlin came weary and thirsty from the theatre to the tavern of Luther and Wegener in the Charlottenstrasse, and wanted cham- pagne, he continued in the tenor of his Falstaff-part to call for ' Sect ' an expression that landlord, guests, and waiters quickly adopted and successfully transmitted to the world of Shakespear- ians outside.
