What reading level is Mr. Donnelly's Reviewers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
67 the same mind? To exact that Bacon's prose shall show an exterior likeness to the Shakespeare poetry is supremely ridiculous, though the two will stand the comparison far better than most, as many a good scholar knows. Eut words are vain to express the utter shallowness and stupidity of insisting on the parallel. The Shakespereolaters, however, are doing it constantly. Why don't they pull out the roots of their hair with tweezers if they want to appear intel- lectual, and not resort to such ...futile devices as these?
The Herald reviewer's pudding is full of plums in the part where he contrasts Bacon with Shakes- peare. One is that Bacon " pays no homage to the imagination," a Delphic line which means, I sup- pose, that in him the faculty is subordinate or non- existent. On the contrary, Bacon's imagination is tremendous. The Novum Organum is the proof of it — a creation like a world. "He has thought," says Taine, " in the manner of artists and poets, and he speaks after the manner of prophets and seers." In his mind the imagination is the all; the other faculties are the spicula, the accessories of it, and surcharged with its mighty magnetic life.
