What reading level is Tragic Drama in Aeschylus, Sophocles, And Shakespeare; book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Electra and Philoctetes are striking instances of this. And the same observation applies to the obdurate resentment of Oedipus against his sons. The final curse on Polynices is the renewal of an earlier imprecation. The scholiast, Brunck, 168 TEAGIG DRAMA and Hermann agree in referring the words to the incident in the old legend, which was familiarly known to everyone who saw the play. Schneidewin and Sir Eichard Jebb believe the aged king to be merely repeating what he had lately said to Ismen...e.
The latter critic accuses those who hold the earlier view of derogating from the dramatic art of Sophocles. But the indignant outburst against his sons, which was prompted by the report of Ismene, was not formal or full enough to take the place of those personified curses so impressively described by Aeschylus in the ' Seven against Thebes,' and no doubt narrated in a preceding passage of the same trilogy; — which, as a father's Erinyes, pursued Eteocles and Polynices to their doom. In this and in much else Sophocles follows closely in the foot- steps of an epic tradition that was matter of common knowledge to his audience.
