What reading level is Milton book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The samedull convention that calls the _Paradise Lost_ a religious poem mightcall these Christian statues. Each is primarily a great work of art ineach the traditions of two eras are blended in a unity that is indicativeof nothing but the character and powers of the artist. The _ParadiseLost_ is not the less an eternal monument because it is a monument todead ideas. We do not know exactly when Milton made his choice of subject. His Latinverses addressed to Manso, Marquis of Villa, in January 16...38-9, show thatArthur and the Round Table was at that time the uppermost theme in hismind, and that the warlike achievement of heroes was the aspect of itthat most attracted him. After his return to England in 1639, it ismentioned once again in his elegy on Charles Diodati, and then we hear nomore of it. In the tentative list of subjects, made in 1641, Arthur hasdisappeared, and the story of _Paradise Lost_ already occupies the mostconspicuous place, with four separate drafts suggesting differenttreatments of the theme.
