What reading level is Shakespeare Bacon An Essay book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Turning to Bacon, it is to be noted that the first book of his Advance- ment is in fact if not in name, an apology for helles lettres, especially poetry, and seems to have been more particularly addressed to those pragmatical personages who looked down upon literature as a trivial if not exactly a low pursuit.^ Again, though Bacon (like Plato) was in truth a poet, he was extremely careful to maintain his aloofness from the regular professors of the art in his day. In the year 1604 for example, ...he was ^ Advancement Book II, under the head, not of poetry but of grammar. It is worthy of note in relation to this utterance of Bacon's, that George Herbert hailed him as a "Literary Brutus" who had shaken off the tyranny of dictators. See Latin verses prefixed to Gilbert Wats' translation (1640^ of the De Augmentis Scientiarum.
^ It seems pretty clear that the first book of the Advancement must have been written some time before the second. But whether Book I was or was not actually written in 1601, Bacon's views on the question therein discussed were probably well known to Ben Jonson at least as early as that.
