What reading level is The Mogul Emperors of Hindustan, 1398-1707; book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If it were absolutely necessary for men to have some visible object of adoration, by means of which they might raise their souls to the Divinity, Akbar recommended that the sun, the planets, or fire should be the symbols. He had no priests, no public worship, and no restrictions about food, except a recommendation of abstinence, as tending to exalt the mind.
His only observances were salutations to the sun, prayers at midnight and daybreak, and meditations at noon on the sun. . . . But as P\}^2...ir practised ^iSi his ceremonies, as well as permitted them, it may be doubted whether they had not gained some hold on his imagi- nation. He seems to have been by nature devout, and, with all his scepticism, to have inclined even to superstitions that promised him a closer connection with the Deity." It is necessary to pause for a moment and to remark that, while these judgments are emi- nently true, we are trying this ruler of the sixteenth century by the standards of our Shah Akbar the Great 201 own day.
