What reading level is The Bibliotaph book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Onewould expect Hardy to make something graphic of the episode. And so hedoes. You can almost see the warrior as he lies there 'in an ovalscoop in the chalk, like a chicken in its shell; his knees drawn up tohis chest; his spear against his arm; an urn at his knees, a jar athis throat, a bottle at his mouth; and mystified conjecture pouringdown upon him from the eyes of Casterbridge street-boys and men. ' The real virtue in this bit of description lies in the few wordsexpressive of the mental a...ttitude of the onlookers. And it is a nicedistinction which Hardy makes when he says that 'imaginativeinhabitants who would have felt an unpleasantness at the discovery ofa comparatively modern skeleton in their gardens were quite unmoved bythese hoary shapes. They had lived so long ago, their hopes andmotives were so widely removed from ours, that between them and theliving there seemed to stretch a gulf too wide for even a spirit topass. ' He takes note of that language which, though not articulate, is incommon use among yeomen, dairymen, farmers, and the townsfolk of hislittle world.
