What reading level is The Principles of Descartes' Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
) God, therefore, is etertial. Q. E. D.
PROPOSITION XX. God has preordained everything from eternity.
DEMONSTRATION.
Since God is eternal (per Prop. 19), His under- standing is eternal because it pertains to His eternal 54 PRINCIPLES OF DESCARTES PHILOSOPHY essence (per Coroll. Prop. 7). Hence His under- standing, and His will, and His decrees are one (Ibid. ) Therefore when we say God knows all things from eternity, we say also that He has willed, and decreed them from eternity. Q. E. D.
COROL...LARY.
From this proposition it follows that God is un- changeable in all His works.
PROPOSITION XXI.
Extended substance has three dimensions, length, breadth and depth. We are united with each of these three.
DEMONSTRATION.
Extended substance, so far as we clearly understand it, does not pertain to the nature of God (per Prop. 10). It can, however, be created by God (per Coroll. Prop. 7, and per Prop. 8). Then we clearly and dis- tinctly perceive (as every thinking person knows) that extended substance produces in us titulations or pain and other similar sensations or ideas, at times even contrary to our desires.
