What reading level is Problems in Periclean Buildings book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These then must have been placed in the interior walls. According to the present plan which shows a closed wall between the shrines of Athena and Erechtheus these two double-doors must have been in the western cross-wall where they could hardly have admitted to a single room (Fowler and Wheeler, Greek Archaeology, p. 148, fig.
115). This obliges us to suppose a division of the middle chamber into two parts and thereby presents a difficulty to those who believe that the word SnrXovv in the descr...iption of Pausanias refers to the entire western part of the Erechthetim. For the western cella would then consist of three in- stead of two chambers.
Further difficulties of a serious nature are encountered when one at- tempts to fit the text of Pausanias to the present plan of the whole building (cf. Michaelis, Jb. Arch. Inst, 1902, p. 16 ff). This is what scholars have sought to do with very different and unsatisfactory results, so un- satisfactory that of late there is a tendency on the part of some to deny that any value is to be placed upon the sequence which Pausanias ob- serves in his narrative.
