What reading level is The Psychology of the Saints book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
First, the nature of the revelation or vision itself, but far more the character of the individual who is favoured with it. As we have seen by the ver- dict given by St" Jane de Chantal, great frequency is a suspicious sign, and it is easy to see why. Habitual repetition suggests that, a new nature has taken the place of the former slowly acquired condition of 78 THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE SAINTS the person. This new nature is an entirely different state in which the person is endowed with attribute...s of another order which manifest themselves by a sort of interior necessity. A metamorphosis of the description is open to two hypotheses. Either there has been a disturbance, entirely pathological in kind, like mental alienation, which creates a radical change in the nature of the sick person, or else there has been a glorious transformation. Now, even in the case of the greatest saints and of the most sublime spiritual states, nature, though greatly strengthened, is still there, and sin is still possible.
