What reading level is Oxford Lectures On Poetry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cleg. I'll set a bourne how far to be beloved.
Ant. Then must thou needs find out new heaven, new earth.
And directly after, when he is provoked by reminders of the news from Rome : Let Rome in Tiber melt, and the wide arch Of the ranged empire fall ! Here is my space.
Kingdoms are clay : our dungy earth alike Feeds beast as man : the nobleness of life Is to do thus.
Here is the tragic excess, but with it the tragic greatness, the capacity of finding in something the infinite, and of pursuing i...t into the jaws of death.
The two aspects are shown here with the exag- geration proper in dramatic characters. Neither the phrase 'a strumpet's fool,' nor the assertion Hhe nobleness 67 hfe is to do thus,' answers to the total effect of the play. But the truths they exaggerate are equally essential ; and the commoner mistake in criticism is to understate the second. It is plain that the love of Antony and Cleopatra is destruc- tive ; that in some way it clashes with the nature of thingsT that, while they are sitting in their paradise like gods, its walls move inward and crush them at last to death.
