What reading level is Thackeray a Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pendennis' love for Arthur sustained and comforted her son. It was so reserved and trustful, so bracing and so healthy, that it must have contributed to render life more simple for him, and its end more gracious and acceptable. But we are alarmed by the strength of a passion that, like Lady Castlewood's, seems to transgress the limits of mortality. There is no doubt, however, that such women have existed, though no author before Thackeray had applied himself to a careful study of the type, and ...curiously enough there is no kind of example of it to be found in the pages of Shakespeare. But the mind that could watch the career of Redmond Barry, and less than ten years later conceive and delineate such a character as Lady Castlewood, must have ranged through almost as great a variety of emotions.
Henry Esmond, the hero, has been made the 132 THACKERAY: A STUDY CH.
subject of a good deal of comparatively undis- criminating criticism. Tiiackeray himself, when irritated with the failure of his novel, consoled himself by reflecting that " after all Esmond was a prig " ; and the chance phrase has been caught up and repeated by most of his critics.
