What reading level is Lives of the Most Eminent Literary And Scientific Men of Great Britain English book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These outlines present merely a selection from the crowd of writers who enjoyed various degrees of oele- MINOR POETS. 225 brity and popularity throughout that long period, but who afterwards fell into oblivion. It would have an- swered no very useful purpose to introduce the names of all the small poets turned up in the course of these researches ; nor, indeed, would the limits of this work have enabled me to embrace them. If enough has been done to indicate the existence of a mass of poetry wh...ich in its own time occupied by no means an insignificant space in public attention, but which, from a variety of causes, has been subsequently neglected or forgotten, the main object of these brief notices will have been fully accomplished.
But all such selections are exposed to the charge of omissions on the one hand, and, on the other, of yielding to inferior claims some space that might have been more profitably occupied. Criticisms of this kind cannot, perhaps, be appeased by any explanations ; yet it must be allowed that the conduct of every undertaking which includes the responsibilities of choice and rejection, becomes ultimately resolved into a matter of opinion, upon which it is impossible to obtain the sanction of universal assent.
