What reading level is Shelley book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But thou art fled. " [4 "Alastor" is a Greek word meaning "the victim of an AvengingSpirit. "] In 'Alastor' he melted with pity over what he felt to be hisown destiny; in 'The Revolt of Islam' (1817) he was "a trumpetthat sings to battle. " This, the longest of Shelley's poems(there are 4176 lines of it, exclusive of certain lyricalpassages), is a versified novel with a more or less coherentplot, though the mechanism is cumbrous, and any one who expectsfrom the title a story of some actual rebe...llion against theTurks will be disappointed. Its theme, typified by anintroductory vision of an eagle and serpent battling inmid-sky, is the cosmic struggle between evil and good, or, whatfor Shelley is the same thing, between the forces ofestablished authority and of man's aspiration for liberty, theeagle standing for the powerful oppressor, and the snake forthe oppressed.
"When round pure hearts a host of hopes assemble The Snake and Eagle meet--the world's foundations tremble.
