What reading level is The Fairy Mythology of Shakespeare book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Such is, all too briefly sketched, the nature of this body of romantic fiction. Whoso is familiar with Arthurian romance detects at once an under- lying similarity of conception, plot, and incident. In both, specially, does the woman of the im- mortal race stand before us in clearer outline and more vivid colouring than the man. Nor is the reason far to seek : the mortal hero is the centre of attraction ; the love of the fairy maiden, who comes from her wonderland of eternal joys lured by his f
...ame, is the most striking token and the highest guerdon of his prowess. To de- pict her in the most brilliant colours is the most effectual way to heighten his glory.
Both these bodies of romantic fiction, Irish and Arthurian, are in the main variations upon one set of themes the love, of immortal for mortal, the strife or friendly comradeship between hero and god or fairy, OF SHAKESPEARE 19 If now we turn back to the living folk-belief of the Irish peasant after our survey of the mediaeval romantic literature, we are seemingly at fault.
