What reading level is The Atlantic Monthly, volume 02, No. 11, September, 1858 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" And in the "Imitation of Horace, " addressed to Lord Fortescue:-- "Better be Cibber, I maintain it still, Than ridicule all taste, blaspheme, quadrille. " "The Dunciad, " as originally published in 1728, had Lewis Theobald forits hero. There was neither sense nor justice in the selection. Popehated Theobald for presuming to edit the plays of Shakspeare withgreatly more ability and acuteness than himself had brought to thetask. His dislike had no better foundation. Neither the works, thecharac...ter, nor the associations of the man authorized his elevation tothe throne of dulness. The disproportion between the subject and thesatire instantly impresses the reader. After the first explosion ofhis malice, it impressed Pope; and anxious to redeem his error, hesought diligently for some plan of dethroning Tibbald, and raisinganother to the vacant seat. Cibber, in the mean time, was elevated tothe laurel, and that by statesmen whom it was the fate of Pope todetest in secret, and yet not dare to attack in print.
