What reading level is Studies in the History of Natural Theology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is plain that it is of considerable interest as showing us a disciple of Anselm in an atmosphere of free discussion, different from any in which Anselm is likely to have found himself. For I think it is quite possible, especially in view of the well-known reputation of the reigning sovereign, William Rufus, as a free-thinker both in religion and in ethics, that Gilbert Crispin may be believed when he tells us of such a philosophical society as existing in the London of his day. It is less li...kely that in the Norman country-side accessible from the monastery of Bee, where Anselm had spent his more leisured years, there was anything of the sort ; and after his elevation to Canterbury he was too great a dignitary and too busy an official to have had the oppor- tunity of knowing more than younger men like Gilbert may have told him about such opportunities of freer dis- cussion in great cities. In any case the Monologion and Proslogion were written while he was still at Bee.
Ill ABELARD WHENEVER Abelard speaks of Anselm, it is with the ' greatest respect ; and it was by no means usual for Abelard to speak so of men who were his own contemporaries.
