What reading level is The Comedies of John Crowne book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"... When men were thought the best divines and truest sons of the Church, who were for deliver- ing up the English Church and Protestant Faith into the mercy of a Church which has neither faith nor mercy, but boasts of infidelity as a virtue. " The play met with much opposition on its repre- sentation. Crowne had incurred the enmity of the Whigs by his comedy of "City Politics" and was incurring that of the adherents of James II now. He states that the play met with opposition from two sides :... "Some, as themselves have boasted to revenge on me what I once wrote against them; others to revenge what I now wrote against them. " The play is very amusing, the characters being well drawn and the situations excellent. It has not been ascertained whether any of the characters were meant for particular individuals.
Crowne assures us to the contrary, stating that he aimed at no particulars. Perhaps Father Finical was intended for Father Petre, clerk of the closet to James II. In 1687 he was sworn Privy Counselor.
