What reading level is The Arbiter in Council book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is to me very interesting. I am sur- prised that Wood's New Institute should not have been noticed by Lecky ; for it shows that at the beginning of the eighteenth century questions were already being raised as to the legitimacy of torture.
Case. Precisely so. The Roman Church, deeply interested in torture as an indispensable weapon of the A DISCUSSION ON CRUELTY 241 inquisition, was being confronted with the question whether this element of the Roman law was com- patible with a Christian c...ivilisation. You see how the work of natural lawyers like Gentilis, Grotius, Selden, Zouch, and Puftendorf was already bearing fruit. The way was being paved for the success of Beccaria.
Truelove. Beccaria ?
Case. Yes, indeed, cousin ; Beccaria of Milan, who has done more than any other man to humanise and rationalise the theory of punishment. Can it be that a Balliol man with all his literae humaniores has not even a nodding acquaintance with Dei Delitti e delle Pene. 1 Truelove. Thrasymachus blushes !
