What reading level is The Summa Theologica of St Thomas Aquinas volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For Plato laid down that immaterial substances were types and species of sensible bodies; and that some were more universal than others; and so he held that immaterial substances preside immedi- ately over all sensible bodies, and different ones over dif- ferent bodies. But Aristotle held that immaterial substances are not the species of sensible bodies, but something higher and more universal ; and so he did not attribute to them any immediate presiding over single bodies, but only over the un...iversal agents, the heavenly bodies. Avicenna fol- lowed a middle course. For he agreed with Plato in sup- posing some spiritual substance to preside immediately in the sphere of active and passive elements ; because, as Plato also said, he held that the forms of these sensible things are derived from immaterial substances. But he differed from Plato because he supposed only one immaterial substance to preside over all inferior bodies, which he called the active intelligence.
The holy doctors held with the Platonists that different spiritual substances were placed over corporeal things.
