What reading level is The Annalist Licinianus a Lecture Delivered in the Hall of Corpus Christi Colle book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

14 The story of the two combatants, one of whom after killing the other recognized him as his brother while stripping his body, and then stabbed himself on the funeral pile constructed for his brother's corpse, must have been famous, as it is mentioned by Livy, Epit. 79 ; Val. Maximus v. 5. 4, Tacitus, Hist. Iii. 51, and Orosius v. 19. 12 (Flemisch). To these may be added the writer of two epigrams, Anth. Lat. 462, 463 Eiese, in which, however, the event is placed at the time of the civil war a...t Actium. The story is given on p. 24, col. B, of Licinianus, and happens to be unusually well preserved. I demur, therefore, to the omission by the Heptas in the words (1. 20) multa praecatus et inpraecatus gladio se traiecit of praecatus et } though the excision is accepted by Camozzi and Flemisch. The unhappy slayer of his brother might well be described as offering, before he killed himself, many prayers and invoking many curses : prayers to the gods to forgive his rash act of murder, curses on the authors of the civil war, who had caused two brothers to fight as enemies.
