What reading level is The Roman Republic And the Founder of the Empire volume 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Se'. ^^ worthy of it. ' This book must have been written by some sturdy old centurion, who fought better than he wrote ' : such was the verdict of Macaulay ; ^ and when he delivered it he was merciful. Bellum Hispaniense is the worst book in Latin literature ; and its text is the most deplorable. The language is generally ungram- matical and often unintelligible. The copyists performed their task so ill that in the forty-two paragraphs there are twenty-one gaps and six hundred corrupt passages,... which Mommsen and lesser men have striven with an industry worthy of a better cause to restore. Trivialities and puerilities abound. Indispensable information is fre- quently sought for in vain. How Gnaeus contrived to defray the cost of the war, how Caesar fed his army, what were the numbers of the troops engaged, why sundry operations were undertaken, we are not told and cannot conjecture ; and the subjects of verbs are so often omitted that without intense cogitation we can sometimes hardly tell by whom an important movement was made.
