What reading level is The book of the Bayeux Tapestry, Presenting the Complete Work in a Series of Colour Facsimiles: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It means that some tradition or some lost document ascribed to this somewhat inconclusive expedi- tion into Brittany holds a great place in the story of Harold and his relations with the Conqueror. No one who looks at the Tapestry can doubt for a moment what the point of this episode is. The point is that Harold, joining with William in the expedition, proving of great service, rewarded by William, and in general much more closely bound to the Norman court through this accident than he otherwis...e might have been, was in all that followed a treacherous/wW. The implication is clear. Whoever designed the Tapestry, or furnished the materials from tradition, believed and wanted others to believe that Harold was not only formally a traitor according to the mere rules of feudal society, but also. morally and fundamentally one, as having forgotten and abused a close personal tie, the product of armed service. It is evident that in the imagination of contemporaries, and therefore in the tradition which they built up, this march of Harold side by side with William into Brittany colours the whole story.
