What reading level is William Shakespeare book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
thorouglily bad man could have given such reverential ex- pression to the sublimest truths of Holy Writ as one finds in the selections cited above. Gervinus, as quoted by Pro- fessor Shairp, claims that " the feelings and sentiments which rise most frequently to the lips of his purest chai'acters may be fairly taken as his own." But why may not the same thing be claimed for the feelings and sentiments which rise to the lips of his impure characters ? Coleridge, while ad- mitting the presence of... the impure in his plays, contends that he has " no virtuous vice, never renders that amiable which religion and reason teach us to detest, nor clothes im- purity in the garb of virtue." He also claims that when contrasted with the plays of his age the superior morality of his dramas is unquestionable. Conceding all this, it yet cannot be denied that Shakespeare treats his vicious char- acters in such a facetious manner, that the reader is likely to be so pleased with their wit, humor, jollity, and good-natured abandon, as neither to look uj^on their vices with unqualified moral censure, nor to feel very profoundly the solemnity and point of the serious passages put into the mouths of his other characters.
