What reading level is Ivan the Terrible book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Tsar is living in the place of residence he has been pleased to choose, and such of his ser- vants as have given him cause for satisfaction are there with him, or are settled close by ; the others are a little farther THE CRISIS 245 off that is all. If peasants, who know nothing about anything, talk about an Opritchnina, people should not listen to them. ' The same orders were given to other embassies, in 1567 and 1571 (' Collections of the Imperial Society of Russian History, ' vol. Ixxi. ..., pp. 461, 777).
But facts began to speak in their turn. The part of the Empire originally given up to the Opritchnina was gradually increased till it comprised a good half of the Tsar's dominions, and till the Opritchniki numbered 5, 000, instead of 1, 000, men. In 1565, the provinces of Vologda, Oustioug, Kargopol, Mojaiisk, and Viazma were added ; in 1566, all the Stroganov properties ; in 1571, part of the province of Novgorod. Each fresh extension was accompanied by a distribution of freehold lands or fiefs, taken from their original possessors.
