What reading level is The Sources of Chaucers Parlement of Foules book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Sometimes the judge in his perplexity allows the maiden to choose for herself. In any case, the normal tale concludes with no lover chosen, and the problem still unsolved. The Contending Lovers^ is thus essentially a problem or hoax tale, and one of its rightful adjuncts is the lack of a definite decision among the lovers.
The earliest recorded versions are four tales in the San- skrit Vetdlapanchavinsati (Twenty-five Tales of a De- mon-), of which the Qivadasa recension was probably made in th
...e sixth century A. D. , 29 and these undoubtedly repre- sent old Indian folk-tales which, so far as we know, are the originals of versions in many other collections of Oriental **The tales in question are the second, fifth, sixth, and seventh of the collection. A text of the Vetalapanchavinsati has been con- stituted by Uhle, based largely on the Civadasa redaction (Die VetaJapancavineatika, Leipzig, 1881). However, the tales are to be found translated directly from the Sanskrit only in scattered places.
