What reading level is The Inspiration of Poetry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The passions of nations, the swing of ideas, the f ortimes of battle, were no more to him than club topics would be to-day, news and conversation, but not excit- ing. He read Rousseau, he sajrs, but "heav- ily, heavily"; that is, he was bored. He | had his well-bred circle of friends, very polite, and his well-bred private tastes, very cultivated; but he was unmoved, habitu...ally otiose, lethargic, oppressed with the dulness Digitized by VjOOQIC 118 THE INSPIRATION OF POETRY of things very often, yet not, I think, un- happy; indeed, a certain intellectual gayety, even in describing his own dulness, is a part \ of the charm of his private correspondence.
~There was much nonchalant good breeding in him, especially as he grew up and came into the routine of manhood; he was a man of the world, not in the sense of being merely a man of society, but in the sense of being disengaged, disinterested, the impartial spectator with a light touch, a just judgment, and a tone of elegance.
