What reading level is The Works of James Russell Lowell book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Private theat- ricals," he writes his father, 1 February, 1852, " are all the rage now in Bome. There are three companies. I have an engagement in one of them under the management of Mr. Black, who has erected a pretty enough little theatre in the Pa- lazzo Cini, where he has apartments, — or an apart- ment, as they would say here. We gave our first representation last Thursday night to a select audience of English and Americans. Our play was a portion of Midsummer Night's Dream, in- cluding ...part of the fairy scenes, and the whole of the interlude of the clowns. In this interlude, I was the star, having the part of Bottom assigned to me. On the morning of Thursday, I wrote a prologue of some thirty lines which I recited to open the performances. This, to me, was the plum of the evening's entertainment. In the first 332 JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL place, I do not think that the audience had any idea that I was a prologue at all, till I had got nearly through ; for I was obliged to speak it in the costume of Bottom, not having time to dress in the interval between the prologue and my first appearance in character.
