What reading level is The Ancient Irish Church volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Columbanus, on the other hand, found himself surrounded hj an ecclesiastical organization in some respects very different from any that he had known at home. The bishops were real spiritual magnates, instead of being, as often in Ireland, subject to the abbot of a monastery. They exercised territorial jurisdiction, and they all of them paid allegiance to the Bishop of Rome. In Ireland, Eome seemed to be a very distant and unknown place ; and they had but little conception of that great system o...f Church government which was being perfected under her auspices. Columbanus, when he went to France, carried with him all the ideas in w^hich he had been brought up. He never thought of conforming himself to the usages of those into whose land he had come. His monasteries were in G-aul, but they were not Gallic. Whatever was the country in which he sojourned, he was still an Irishman, and it never entered his head that he should belong to any other than the Irish Church. The differences soon became apparent.
