What reading level is Miltons Sonnets book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
and peculiar interest attaching to it as the utterance of the same mind that evolved that epic in its full grandeur and symmetry. The Sonnets have this vir- tue, at all events, which belongs to no other of his poetical work, namely that they have been too often overlooked as fragmentary and unimportant.
Among the English sonnets only one was written before the temporary blight of an unfortunate marriage fell upon his life, and before he was hopelessly involved in pamphlet writing.
Milton return...ed from the continent in August, 1639, took rooms in London, and undertook the education of his two nephews, Edward and John Phillips, the sons of his only sister Anne. He had escaped one danger which beset a scholar at that time more than now, the acceptance of a University fellowship. The man who for civil and personal liberty was willing to sacrifice everything in the world, and who, under what appears to have been a mistaken sense of duty, actually did make the greatest sacrifice that poet could be called upon to offer, a sacrifice of nothing less than sustained poetic cultivation and expression during twenty years of his life, the exercise of that 'one talent which is death to hide, ' was not the man to be bound by the restraints and limitations of a University fellowship.
