What reading level is John Huss : the Witness book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
59 Closely connected with this question of neu- trality was the famous secession of the German members of the University of Prague, who, follow- ing the lead of Archbishop Zbynek, refused to give up their allegiance to Gregory XII, in spite of all efforts on the part of King Wenzel to induce them to do so. This called attention anew to a question which had before been agitated, and in which patriotic fervor was to join hands with religious feelings. Huss, who was an ardent patriot, as well as r...eformer, took a leading part in these events, and was later, though wrongfully, accused of hav- ing been the chief instigator of the movement.
We have already seen that of the four nations con- stituting the University, three were practically com- posed of Germans ; thus the Polish nation, in spite of its name, consisted chiefly of Silesians, Pomeran- ians, and Prussians. These Germans invariably voted as one body against the Bohemians, whom they thus outnumbered three to one. This they did now (1409) in standing up for Gregory XII, in spite of the fact that a majority of the cardinals, the Universities of Paris, Bologna, and Oxford, and most of the Christian rulers of the world had given him up.
