What reading level is A Second Gallery of Literary Portraits book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Not thus could Carlyle pass from his " Life of CromAvell " to a panegyric on the "Man of Blood, " whose eyes "could bear to look on torture, but durst not look on war. " But Macaulay is the artist, sympathising more with the poetry than with the principles of the great Puri- tanic contest.
His " Roman Lays, " though of a later date, fall naturally under the same category of consideration. These, when published, took the majority of the public by surprise, who were nearly as astonished at this... late flowering of poetry in the celebrated critic, as were the Edinburgh people, more recently, at the portentous tidings that Patrick Robertson, also, was among the poets. The initiated, however, acquainted with his previous eifusions, hailed the phenomenon (not, as in Patrick's case, with shouts of spurt- inf laughter), but with bursts of applause, which the general voice more than confirmed. The day when the " Lays" appeared, though deep in autumn, seemed a belated dog-day, so frantic did their adnyrers become.
