What reading level is Ethics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" In this sense, of course, both may be said to be bad, but then this does not makethem out to be bad _simpliciter_: the exercise of the pure Intellectsometimes hurts a man's health: but what hinders Practical Wisdom orany state whatever is, not the Pleasure peculiar to, but some Pleasureforeign to it: the Pleasures arising from the exercise of the pureIntellect or from learning only promote each.
Next. "No Pleasure is the work of any Art. " What else would you expect?No active working is the w...ork of any Art, only the faculty of soworking. Still the perfumer's Art or the cook's are thought to belong toPleasure.
Next. "The man of Perfected Self-Mastery avoids Pleasures. " "The manof Practical Wisdom aims at escaping Pain rather than at attainingPleasure. " "Children and brutes pursue Pleasures. " One answer will do for all.
We have already said in what sense all Pleasures are good _per se_ andin what sense not all are good: it is the latter class that brutes andchildren pursue, such as are accompanied by desire and pain, that is thebodily Pleasures (which answer to this description) and the excesses ofthem: in short, those in respect of which the man utterly destitute ofSelf-Control is thus utterly destitute.
