What reading level is Primer of Italian Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


mind to this, he published a kind of manifesto Delia tirannide, in which he announced himself as the uncom- promising advocate of liberty, in politics, in morals, and in literature.
Alfieri wrote many works widely differing in character, and by no means of uniform merit, but all breathe a generous love of country, and have as their supreme object the making of an Italian nation. Owing to their number it is impossible to go over all in detail. It must suffice to select the more important. His ep
...ic Etruria Liberata, in which he sings of the assassination of Alessandro de' Medici by his kinsman Lorenzino, need not detain us. The time had gone by for the writing of epics, and Alfieri's impulsive temperament ill suited him for the composition of a work demanding the easy flow, pompous description, and full treatment of a heroic poem. His version of the Aeneid, made for his own pleasure, and on which, being a labour of love, he bestowed all possible pains, shows clearly enough that his talents did not lie in this direction.
