What reading level is Poetry Comedy And Duty book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Antigone is true to this sanctity, and pays the sad rites to her brother. The family acts through her, but in its turn it defies the state. The king re- quires her to make atonement by her death. The state thus tramples on the family. Her lover, the king's son, kills himself for grief, and the family is avenged. While neither party is right from the other's standpoint, neither is wrong from its own. Ancient tragedy had something nobler and better to do than to gloat over pictures of mere crime.... These powers act to a great extent unconsciously, blindly. This blindness is brought out more distinctly in the story of CEdipus. He kills his father, not know- ing who it is ; he marries his mother in the same blindness. None the less has he offended against family and state. None the less must he pay the penalty. We can see more clearly how these tragedies represent the working of the THE TRAGIC FORCES. 133 great forces which underlie life, if we may assume that CEdipus originally represented the sun- god.
