What reading level is Orpheus, a General History of Religions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
and Bernard, Abbot of Clairvaux ; the fourth by Innocent III. and Foulques of Neuilly. Even the frantic Children's Crusade (1212) was encouraged by Innocent III. It was naturally to the interest of the papacy to appear thus as the supreme power which set all the military forces of Europe in movement. As soon as a noble had taken the Cross, he belonged to the Church. The Crusader's vow was indissoluble save by the Pope's consent ; from the beginning of the thirteenth century he began to grant re...mission for ready money. In the crusading armies the papal legates became delegates of a theocracy which consolidated rapidly and threatened to absorb civil society altogether. On the other hand, the Church fattened on the general misery ; to obtain the money necessary for their enterprises, nobles and vassals were obliged to sell their lands, which the Church bought at prices far below their value.
Thus Godfrey de Bouillon, Duke of Brabant, sold his estate of Bouillon to the Chapter of Liege, and Stenay to the Bishop of Verdun.
