What reading level is The Epic book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To define itwith any narrower nicety would probably be rash. We have not beendiscovering what an epic poem ought to be, but roughly examining whatsimilarity of quality there is in all those poems which we feel, strictly attending to the emotional experience of reading them, can beclassed together and, for convenience, termed epic. But it is not muchgood having a name for this species of poetry if it is given as well topoems of quite a different nature. It is not much good agreeing to callby the... name of epic such poems as the _Iliad_ and the _Odyssey_, _Beowulf_ and the _Song of Roland_, _Paradise Lost_ and _GerusalemmeLiberata_, if epic is also to be the title for _The Faery Queene_ and_La Divina Commedia_, _The Idylls of the King_ and _The Ring and theBook_. But I believe most of the importance in the meaning of the wordepic, when it is reasonably used, will be found in what is writtenabove. Apart from the specific form of epic, it shares much of itsultimate intention with the greatest kind of drama (though not with alldrama).
