What reading level is Steele And the Sentimental Comedy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This marriage strangely surprised me.
Toting Bookwit. Why, did you believe it, too, as well as the old gentleman ? Why, then, I did it excellently. Ha ! ha ! ha !
It is a great pleasure to turn from The Lyiity Lover to Steele's next play, The Tender Husband t or The Accomplished Fools. This was produced by Rich in 1705, with the charming Mrs. Oldfield in the part of the heroine. The plot may for the most part, like that of The Funeral, be called original, with the exception of a short episode i...n the fourth Act, which is in part taken from Moliere's Le Sicilien, or L'Ammtr Peintre. The play is still farce and will not bear any translation into the conditions of real life, but it sparkles everywhere with wit. It is most original and fresh in its treatment of character, and it has that quiet deep humour and idyllic charm which distinguishes The Vicar of IVakefeld. The plot is cleverly worked out, and the characters are clearly and consistently sketched.
If one may criticize the critics (it is usually done), it must be said that they have made far too little of the indi- vidual differences existing between Steele's four plays.
