What reading level is The Eighteen Nineties; a Review of Art And Ideas At the Close of the Nineteenth Century book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He is gold-dusty with tumbling amidst the stars.
He makes bright mischief with the moon. The meteors nuzzle their noses in his hand. He teases into growling the kennelled thunder, and laughs at the shaking of its fiery chain. He dances in and out of the gates of heaven ; its floor is littered with his broken fancies. He runs wild over the fields of ether. He chases the rolling world. He gets between the feet of the horses of the sun. He stands in the lap of patient Nature, and twines her loosen
...ed tresses after a hundred wilful fashions, to see how she will look nicest in his song." And in this description of Shelley, Thompson goes far towards describing himself, but he did not stand " in the lap of patient Nature " ; Francis Thompson, childlike also, rested in the lap of God.
Tliis kinship with Shelley in a common Pantheism is realised more than elsewhere in Francis Thompson's Anthem of Earth, a luxuriant poem in which he retraces with depth and beauty, and an added richness, the image he had sum- moned to his aid in the essay on his kin-poet : '- Then what wild Dionysia I, young Bacchanal, Danced in thy lap !
