What reading level is Tragedy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The seeds of fatal passions have been already sown when the play begins ; it is the stifling hothouse in which they luxuriate. The end is inevitable.
228 TRAGEDY though it may be long held in suspense and attained through some surprise in the final act.
"The Broken Heart" is the most healthy of his plays.
Orgilus, whose life has been blighted because Penthea has married Bassanio through the intervention of her brother, the great General Ithodes, pursues his revenge upon Ithocles in spite of muc...h delay and apparent re- conciliation. Finally he stabs Ithocles to death just as Ithocles is to be married to the princess Calantha, and just as Penthea dies of madness and starvation. The familiar round of revenge, madness, and torture here reappears, but it is told in a story full of romantic senti- ment and human passion, and not without sunshine as well as shadow. It is the final scenes, however, which every reader remembers. Calantha is dancing when the tidings of the deaths of her father and her lover are brought to her, and she dances on, hiding her grief and playing her part nobly, until, duty accomplished, her heart is free to yield to its bursting sorrow.
