What reading level is The Elizabethan Playhouse, And Other Studies [review] book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It would be pleasant, in conclusion, to dwell on the many commendable features of the volume. I have space, however, to mention only two.
In the paper, "New Facts about the Blackf riars, " is pre- sented an ingenious and plausible explanation of the term "private" as applied to certain playhouses. The author connects the word with the city ordinance of 1575, forbidding public performances within the city; "Provydid allwaie that this Acte . . . shall not c^xtend to anie plaies . . in the pryvate... hous, dwellinge, or lodginge, of anie nobleman, citizen or gentleman . . . without publique or common collection of money of the auditorie." This seems conclusive.
In the paper on "Title and Locality Boards," and again in the final essay, Mr. Lawrence has done a valuable service by emphasizing the use of the multiple setting which long held eway at the court, and, at first, in the private, and to a less extent, in the public playhouses. The need of calling special attention to this fact is well proved by the clumsy at- tempts of modern editors to give exact locations to the scenes in our early plays.
