What reading level is The Ancient World From the Earliest Times to 800 Ad book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was a well-meaning, gentle youth (the nearest heir of the house of Septimius Severus) ; but he lacked the stern strength needful for his place. His court was simple and pure. "Do not to another what thou wouldst not have done to thyself " was the motto inscribed upon the entrance to the royal palace. Septimius had had for his chief minister Papinian, a great jurist. Alexander Severus, in like manner, was assisted by Ulpian (§ 637), the leading jurist of his day, and the chief adviser of the ...Emperor ; but Ulpian was finally murdered by the soldiery at the helpless Emperor's feet. The reign was troubled also on the frontiers by new enemies, — by a new Persian kingdom which had now overthrown the Par- thians in the East, an'd, on the Rhine, by fresh German peoples. But, in spite of these troubles to court and to frontier, for the bulk of the empire the thirteen years of Severus were an oasis of peace and plenty in the dreary third century.
644. For the next thirty-three years (235-268) phantom emperors fol- low one another in bewildering confusion which it is profitless to trace.
