What reading level is The Minnesinger of Germany book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ulrich himself advised his friends to depart. He was thus held a captive for a whole year, and cruelly treated all the time, being often threatened with death by his tormentors, who tried to make him assign to them all his possessions. Yet his spirit remained undaunted, so that even during his cap- tivity he was able to compose a new song for his lady-love. His liberation finally took place through the Duke of Gorz coming to his assistance with some of his soldiers. Yet Gorz was also forced to ...conclude a compromise with the two traitor knights j and although we do not know what sum Ulrich had to pay for his ransom, it seems to have been a very heavy one.
But once more free, Ulrich soon forgot all the dis- comforts and costs of his confinement, in the enjoy- ment of his lady's love, which filled his heart with gladness. He kept up this sort of life till his death, which occurred about 1274-1277 ; so that he reached the age of seventy-five years. Nothing is known of his later life beyond that in 1268 he was arrested — conveniently it seems, and for purposes of extortion — on a charge of rebellion against King Ottocar, and kept imprisoned for about half a year, when he purchased his ransom with his two castles Lichten- stein and Muvan.
