What reading level is Dante, a Sketch of His Life And Works book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Twice in the council of a hundred he had openly advised that "noth- ing be done in the service of the Pope." Digitized by Google THE EXILE. 97 Nevertheless Dante was chosen for the em- bassy, and with the three other ambassa- dors set out for Rome in September, 1301, little dreaming that he was taking his last look at his native city.
If we deny the authenticity of Dino Compagni, we have no account of Dante's audience with the Pope ; but histprians have delighted in sketching the interview: "Th...e poet philosopher in his Florentine lucco, — the long and gjraceful robe which the pictures of him have made familiar to our eyes, — kneeling before the Pontiffs footstool with upturned look, while every feature of that wonderfully expressive and strongly-marked face was working with in- tense anxiety and passion." On the other hand, " Boniface with his hard, worldly face, sardonic nose, sensual mouth, double chin, and cold, shrewd eye." Dante has neg- lected no opportunity of showing his con- tempt for Boniface.
