Pythons ConfigParser reading my file as a list

I'm creating a game with pygame and I'm using ConfigParser to parse various things for map tiles. But when I get to the part where I do

parse.read(filename)

It outputs this error

    self.level = self.config.get("level","map")
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get'

I'm guessing parse.read(filename) returned a list instead of its intended object. Heres my Code I suppose. I've been searching google but couldn't find anything related to this.

    import pygame
    import ConfigParser

    parse = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()

    class MakeLevel():
        def MapMake(self,spriteList,filename):
            self.config = parse.read(filename)
            self.level = self.config.get("level","map")
            self.LegendDict = self.config.get("dictionary")
            self.Proper = []
            self.newTile = None
            self.x = 0
            self.y += 50
            #Get propper legend stats
            for items in LegendDict:
                for row in level:
                    for col in row:
                        if col == items:
                            #LegendDict[items]
                            self.image = self.config.get(items, "image")
                            self.newTile =  MapTile(self.image,self.x,self.y)
                            return spriteList.add(self.newTile)
                    x += 50
                y += 50
                x = 0


    class MapTile(pygame.sprite.Sprite):
        def __init__(self,image,x,y):
            pygame.sprite.Sprite.__init__(self)
            self.image = pygame.image.load(image)
            self.rect = Rect(x, y, 32, 32)


    class Controller():
        def __init__(self):
            pass

        def Keys(self):
            for event in pygame.event.get():
                if event.type == pygame.KEYDOWN:
                    if event.key == pygame.K_a:
                        return 'a'
                    if event.key == pygame.K_d:
                        return 'd'

                if event.type == pygame.KEYUP:
                    if event.key == pygame.K_a:
                        return 'a up'
                    if event.key == pygame.K_d:
                        return 'd up'

    AllSprites = pygame.sprite.Group()

    makeLevel = MakeLevel()
    mapFile = open('level1.ini')
    makeLevel.MapMake(AllSprites,mapFile)

    AllSprites.draw()

I made sure the level1.ini file is in the same folder as the main.py file. Hopefully the problem isnt something so obvious.
