What reading level is Famous People of Japan Ancient And Modern book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In his youth he was much loved and trusted by his father, and was allowed to take part in the Em- peror's attempt to overthrow the Ho jo regent in Kamakura. During this conflict Prince Morinaga showed much bravery and intelligence, and did great service. In fact, it was he and Kusunoki Masashige who bore the brunt of the strife in its early stages. And when -at last the Ho jo family was virtually exterminated (in 1333)> and a new government established in Kyoto, Prince Morinaga was given the ti...tle of Sliogun. This was a revival of the origi- nal meaning of the word Sliogun, that is, simply commander-in- chief.
In the meantime, however, the crafty and ambitious Takauji had begun to harbour rebellious projects against the new government; for he keenly desired to become Sliogun himself, and regarded Morinaga as the principle obstacle in the path of his ambition. At last, by a dastardly intrigue, he contrived to have Prince Morinaga accused of treachery to the Emperor, So the prince was arrested and sent to Kamakura where he was imprisoned in a dungeon, and afterwards cruelly murdered by an assassin sent by Ashikaga (in 1335).
