What reading level is Pastoral Poetry And Pastoral Drama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A glance at the dramatis personae reveals a curious artificial symmetrywhich, as we shall shortly see, is significant of the spirit in whichFletcher approached the composition of his play. In Clorin we have a nymphvowed to perpetual virginity, an anchorite at the tomb of her dead lover;in Thenot a worshipper of her constancy, whose love she cures by feigninga return. In Perigot and Amoret are represented a pair of ideal lovers--soFletcher gives us to understand--in whose chaste bosoms dwell no ...looserflames. Amarillis is genuinely enamoured of Perigot, with a love that bidsmodesty farewell, and will dare even crime and dishonour for itsattainment; Cloe, as already said, is a study in erotic pathology. She isthe female counterpart of the Sullen Shepherd, who inherits thetraditional nature of the satyr, that monster having been transformed intothe gentle minister of the cloistral Clorin. So, again, the character ofAmarillis finds its counterpart in that of Alexis, whose love for Cloe isat least human; while Daphnis, who meets Cloe's desperate advances with ashy innocence, is in effect, whatever he may have been in intention, hardly other than a comic character.
