What reading level is Teutonic Mythology volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Praetorius's ' Storcbs und schwalben-'winterquartier, ' Franef. 1676, p. 185. 764 SUMMEE AND WINTER. prevails, or did prevail in recent centuries, almost everywhere in German and Slav countries, and bespeaks a very ancient origin. What the minnesingers, with their elegant phrases about the old 'chair, entiy, highway, grace and glory of Summer ' as a king or god, may have led us to guess, is supplemented and illus- trated by abiding customs of the people, which in rude artless fashion drive at t...he main point. The modes of celebration and the songs vary greatly. 1 Often there is only a wreath, a doll, an animal carried about in a basket, and gifts demanded from house to house. 2 Here it is a cock, there a crow or a fox, 3 that the children take round, as in Poland at the time of coleda (new- year) they go about with a stuffed wolf, collecting gifts (Lindo sub v. Koleda). These animals do not migrate, and I leave it undetermined, what right they can have to represent the stork or swallow, or whether they mean something altogether different.
