What reading level is The Past And Present State of Dramatic Art And Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In " Coriolanus^ (the noblest of his revivals), the mob and tiie scenery lose their effect by repetition; but who ever sees or hears without emotion the words and gesture with which he snatches up his mother, abased by h^ grief and his pride! He might then have on ''Gate's loi^ wig and flowered gown,"^ still the tone and the gesture would vibrate through every heart, and " one touch of nature make the whole world akin." It must appear invidious, however, to carp at the noble efforts of one who,... single-handed, has endeavoured to sus- twi the drama in its original might.
