To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sur la Poes. Et la Peint. Vol. II. ] On the contrary, the Poet who chuseth a more unpromising subject, anddisplays an unexpected fertility of invention in his manner of treatingit, is admired as an Original Genius, and the perusal of his workexcites in our mind the most agreeable mixture of surprize and pleasure.
It must immediately occur to any reader who peruseth the Hymn ofCallimachus to Jupiter, that the subject was too great to be properlymanaged by the correct and elegant genius of that ...writer. Instead ofenlarging (as we should have naturally expected) on any particularperfection of this Supreme Deity, or even of enumerating in a poeticalmanner the attributes which were commonly ascribed to Him, he entertainsus coldly with traditionary stories about His birth and education; andthe sublime part of his subject is either wholly omitted, orsuperficially passed over. Thus speaking of the bird of Jove, he saysonly, Θηκαο δ’ οιωνον μεγ’ ὑπειροχον αγγελεωτην, Σων τεραων‧ ἁτ’ εμοισι φιλοις ενδεξια φαινοις[63].
