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


Causes were now at work which undermined and finally ruined the Italian opera.
82 UANDEL.
CHAPTER VII.
HAHDEL MANAGER OF THE ITALIAN OPEEA.
It is said tliat Swift once remarked to Gay^ on the subject of dramas, that " a Newgate pastoral might make an odd, pretty kind of thing." The idea, whether thus suggested or not, was fruitful. It was not necessary to go fair to find a Newgate pastoral in those days of lawlessness and violence. Embittered by long years of waiting about court, in the hope —
...always deferred — of favours which never came, smart- ing with neglect, resentment, and wounded pride.
Gay wrote the Beggar's Opera, produced by Rich at Lincoln's Inn Fields on January 29, 1728, which, in the slight disguise of a story professing to expose the malpractices of thieves, highwaymen, and receivers of stolen goods, and to depict the lowest forms of vice and crime, was, in truth, a venomous satire on the court, the first minister, and the fashionable life of the day, an apotheosis of triumphant profligacy and universal corruption, conveyed in the form of the most fashionable of all entertainments, the opera.
