What reading level is Sumptuary Law in Nrnberg a Study in Paternal Government book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before the Reformation they had the matter on their consciences; and these cases in which they tightened the restraints of the law show that they were likely at any time, of their own accord, and with only the stimulus of the menace offered to public peace and morals, to draw the rein upon excess.
One might point to the old regulations of the carnival revelries, restriction of which again has been cited as a manifestation of the reforming spirit, to show that these festivities too had long been... watchfully restrained by the council. 19 But our object is something beyond tilting against the errors of one writer. It is rather, by the test of their legal pronouncements, to measure the extent to which the fathers of the council felt a responsibility for the moral welfare of the burghers, and for personal conduct and a scale of living which appeared from the city hall as proper and decent. Perhaps this sense of duty was intensi- fied, certainly it was not engendered, by the Reformation, with the injection of the Protestant spirit.
