What reading level is Costantinopoli book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After having made in silence several tours about the mosque, we allowed our guides to speak, who began by showing us the chapels placed beneath the galleries, and despoiled of every thing, like every other part of the basilica. Some of them serve as treasuries, in which Turks who are starting on a long jour- ney, or who are in fear of robbers, deposit their money and their precious objects, and often leave them there for years, under God's guard ; others, enclosed by a wall, are converted into ...infirmaries, in which some idiot, or man sick of an incura- ble disease, awaits release by cure or death, and from time to lime makes the mosque ring with lamentable cries, or childish laughter. They now re-conduct us into the middle of the nave and the Greek dragoman begins to recount the marvels of the basilica. The design, it is true, was traced by the architects Antemius of Tralles and Isidoro of Miletus ; but an angel in- spired the first conception of it. It was an angel also who sug- gested to Justinian to cause three windows to be opened in the apse, which should represent the three persons of the Trinity.
