What reading level is The Poetry of Tennyson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the poet whose works we are to study is at once one of the most scholarly and one of the most widely popular of English writers. At least one cause of his popularity is that there is so much of the Bible in Tennyson. How much, few even of his most ardent lovers begin to understand.
226 TBE POETRY OF TENNYSON.
I do not know that the attempt has ever been made before to collect and collate all the Scriptural allusions and quotations in his works, and to trace the golden threads which he has w...oven from that source into the woof of his poetry. The delight of " fresh woods and pastures new " — so rare in this over-explored age — has thus been jnine. I have found nearly three hundred direct references to the Bible in the poems of Tennyson ; and have given a list of them in the appendix to this book. This may have some value for professed Tennysonians, and for them alone it is given. The general reader would find it rather dry pasturage.
But there is an aspect of the subject which has a wider interest.
