What reading level is George Buchanan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He satirises the clergy, especially the monks, and ridicules such doctrines as those of Indulgences and Transubstantiation, the latter especially in the Francis- canus, where it is stated with a grossness and extra- vagance of literalism which would probably be disowned by the highest order of Catholic dogmatist. As the Franciscanus was published, after revision and completion, in his Protestant days, this may have been an addition of the period; but nowhere, in anything he wrote during the Pro...testant part of his career, does he emphasise, or almost even allude to, such doctrines as Justification by Faith, the Incarnation, the Atone- ment, Election, and Reprobation, or any of the positive dogmatic propositions most prominently characteristic of Scottish Protestantism. Not a Zealot It is remarkable that in his History he associates the Reformers less with Evangelium than vt'\\hLibertas, They are the vindices libertatis ' the champions of liberty ' quite as much or oftener than the Evangelii professores 'the professors of the Evangel, ' from which it might GEORGE BUCHANAN 91 seem that for Buchanan, not the least valuable aspect of Protestantism lay in its being a struggle for liberty a view in which a good many other people will be ready to concur.
