What reading level is Sir Walter Scott book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For that one book did more than any other to precipitate the controversy between Classics and Romantics. And Scott did more than any other writer to give impulse and area to the Romantic School. By what method, we may ask, did he make the Chevalier interesting in 1814 not only to Senior, my Classical witness, but to nations who knew nothing of Scottish manners, and cared little enough, I daresay, for an abortive effort to retrieve one lost crown prosecuted in an age almost forgotten by men who ...had seen the crowns of all Europe redistributed, by the Revolution, by Napoleon, and the Congress ? Let us look at his method. Waverley, Guy Mannering, Redgauntlet are written, as Scott himself tells us, round the professional know- ledge of a lawyer with a predilection for 14 SIR WALTER SCOTT lawlessness. Their origins are of the driest. Never did such irritating grains of sand excite the production of such pearls. These cannot be accidents of Scott's temperament and vocation. We cannot explain him as a literary oyster.
