What reading level is Rabelais in His Writings book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

11-13, a tissue of incoherence, with an allusion here and there to contemporary events, probably designed to set his readers guessing at the meaning of what was intention- ally without meaning, and to hold up to ridicule such unintelligible pleadings.
In the Third, Book at the trial of Judge Bridlegoose (cc. 39-44) we find the old Judge very exact and punctilious in recounting the forms of procedure in their due order of summoning, the preparation of the papers for the plaintiff and the defenda
...nt and the examination of the testimony for both sides, the shifts and evasions of the litigants (these had been alluded to in the Pantagruel under the head of cautelae) and the judgement and its execution. Most of his know- ledge on these points is derived from the Forensia, or Practice of the Courts, of Budaeus (cf. R.E.R. xi. 31-9).
The judge then explains that after having several times examined these papers he gives his decision according Rabelais as Legist 131 to a throw of the dice. This is taken exception to by the judge presiding at the trial and defended most ingeniously by the old Judge with a parade of legal learning that is quite bewildering.
