What reading level is English Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


His sorrows are* too loud. Nevertheless, by force of poetry, not of dramatic art, Marlowe made a noble porch to the temple which Shakespeare built. That tem- ple, however, in spite of all the preceding work, seems to spring out of nothing, so astonishing it is in art, in beauty, in conception. He himself was his only worthy predecessor, and the third stage of the drama includes his work, that of Ben Jon son's, and of a few others. It is the work, moreover, not of University men who did not know
... the stage, but of men who were not only men of genius, but also playwrights who understood what a play should be, and how it was to be staged.
82. William Shakespeare in twenty-eight jears made the drama represent almost the whole of human life. He was baptised April 26, 1564, and was the son of a com- fortable burgess of Stratford-on-Avon. While he was still young his father fell into poverty, and an interrupted education left him an inferior scholar. " He had small Latin and less Greek ; " but he had a vast store of English.^ 1 He uses 15,000 words, and he wrote pure English.
