What reading level is The Reception of Goethes Faust in England in the First Half of the Nineteenth C book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As to the reasons for making his translation in prose, Hay- ward said that the idea was first suggested to him by a remark made by Charles Lamb to H. F. Cary, an honored friend of Ha}^vard's, that he had derived more pleasure from the meager Latin versions of the Greek tragedians, than from any other version he was acquainted with. Hayward was then confirmed in his determination to translate " Faust " in prose, by the remark of Goethe that the Germans had the great advan- tage of having Shakesp...eare translated in an easy and clear manner by Wieland and Eschenburg. Hayward felt that a prose version of "Faust" was not the ideal version, but he came to the conclusion that it was the best plan at that time to make an exact literal translation. He was aware that no writer would lose so much by a prose version as Goethe, but that, on the other hand, no writer could afford to lose so much. Goethe would still be powerful after being submitted to the crucible of prose. Hayward had serious thoughts at one time of calling his work: "Aids to the Understanding of Faust, " a title modelled after the German commentaries, but eventually he decided to make a complete translation.
