What reading level is Lectures On American Literature With Remarks On Some Passages of American Hist book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The poets of our own country have had these fine models before them ; and they have shown the world that they have profited by being in such a school. There is at present much talent, ambition, and information among our poets, and they are getting rid of the ridiculous impressions which have long been prevalent, that genius is every thing, and information nothing, in making a poet. The prophets of old had to build the altar, and lay on it the wood, before they called the fire from heaven to kin...dle the flame and burn the offering.
My intention, at first, was to have mentioned many of our living poets ; two only have I named, Freneau and Trunibull, and these AMERICAN LITERATURE. 187 patriotick bards are so near, in the course of nature, to the confines of a better world, that I felt no reluctance to speak of them ; but on mature reflection, I gave up the thought of bringing forward any more, fearing that it would be premature to discuss their merits in a work like this, as a fair criticism on these would be in a measure making comparisons between them.
