What reading level is The Wagnerian Drama: An Attempt to Inspire a Better Appreciation of Wagner ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The number of those who really show comprehension is an extremely limited one ; on the one hand we meet with inane moloch- worshippers who fall stunned to earth under the tremendous impression of these works ; on the other hand, with such dullness of mind, that these marvels of art make no impression whatever, or are regarded as eccentricities, perversions, etc. Then there is yet another class of persons who, admiring these works in their hearts, nonetheless fear nothing so much as that the spa...rk might be fanned into the flame of fervid enthusiasm, whereby they then yGoogk THE DRAMAS AFTER 1848 87 might appear " one-sided," and who therefore intentionally give a pale and anaemic develop- ment to their soul. This relation towards genius is sad in the extreme. Never did the soul of artist live more freely than in Richard Wagner, and only free, artistic beings are able to understand and love him and his works.
Whosoever has not an untroubled artistic eye can never recognise the tremendous greatness of Wagner, and whosoever has not a proud heart in him will never understand that in the world of art this greatness denotes no barrier.
