What reading level is Religious Liberty book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whence precisely did Hontheim derive the idea ? We are told in the history of his juvenile studies. He began them in Treves, where he was born, continued them in the Jansenist university of Louvain, where he was at the time of Zeger Van Espen, and finished them at the Protestant university of Leyden, famous for its traditions of toleration, where he was a scholar of Noodt and Vitrianus, one of the most successful 398 THE CATHOLIC COUNTRIES propagators of the doctrine of natural law according to... the teaching of Grotius and Pufendorf. If, accordingly, his episcopalist doctrines are to be referred immediately to Van Espen, as has already been maintained by several writers, his tendency towards toleration is a not less immediate fruit of that fertile school of natural law which had already accomplished so much in this direction in Germany. But on looking still further into the matter, that is to say, considering on the one side his precise abstraction of the dogmatic contents of the various religions, which was all the more strange because Hontheim was an ecclesiastic and, moreover, a Catholic, and, on the other side, the almost boundless power which he assigns to the State in ecclesiastical affairs, one is justified in tracing this tendency of his beyond the school of natural law to tlie old irenical and syncretist expedient, which by now had become traditional, of simplifying and reducing the number of dogmas and elevating the State above the differences of religion.
