What reading level is Tacitus On Germany book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To the practice of usury and of increasing money by interest, they arestrangers; and hence is found a better guard against it, than if itwere forbidden. They shift from land to land; and, still appropriatinga portion suitable to the number of hands for manuring, anon parcel outthe whole amongst particulars according to the condition and qualityof each. As the plains are very spacious, the allotments are easilyassigned. Every year they change, and cultivate a fresh soil; yetstill there is ground... to spare. For they strive not to bestow labourproportionable to the fertility and compass of their lands, by plantingorchards, by enclosing meadows, by watering gardens. From the earth, corn only is extracted. Hence they quarter not the year into so manyseasons. Winter, Spring, and Summer, they understand; and for eachhave proper appellations. Of the name and blessings of Autumn, they areequally ignorant. In performing their funerals, they show no state or vainglory. This onlyis carefully observed, that with the corpses of their signal men certainwoods be burned.
