What reading level is The Century of the Renaissance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Parliament summoned seventy-three persons who had disappeared to stand their trial — among them Clement Marot. Men, women, and children of all ages and all ranks fell victims ; and public opinion signified its approval. Matters reached such a pitch that Francis I began to think the authorities were going too far. At his request Parliament stopped the persecutions. A lull followed, and the seventy-three Lutherans who had been banished by proclamation were authorized to return. Prisoners were... released with a warning that if they were arrested again they would be sent to the stake. The King explained to the ambassador Giustiniano that he had some difficulty in getting heretics burnt, especially as it was not done in Flanders.
But the impetus had been given, and Francis I was obliged once more to see his magistrates, with the sanction of public opinion, exceed the limits he himself would have set. In the villages of Provence there were a certain number of people who were said to have held somewhat heretical ideas for a long time, ever since the thirteenth century.
