What reading level is The Life of Cardinal Ximenez book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As regards the alleged alterations of these protocols, which the enemies of the Church reprove with so much energy, they consisted simply in translating the depositions of the accusers and witnesses from the first into the third person, and suppressing such points as would have revealed the names of the accusers to the accused : this was done to avert Spanish vengeance.
e. The inquisitors, furthermore, received instruc- tions to be zealous and careful in collecting all the materials which might... serve for the defence of the accused, and after obtaining them, to inquire of him if he desired other researches to be made ; in which case his wishes were to be complied with as far as possible.
Llorente, we see, has hitherto given us the best weapons to defend the Inquisition against unjust accusations. He will still continue to do so in our subsequent observations.
10. The sentences of the Inquisition were sur- rounded by equally great precautions.
a. Each sentence of the provincial tribunals was subject to the revision and consent of the supe- rior authorities, the grand-inquisitor, and the grand council, and only acquired legality after being con- firmed by them.
