Over at Christopher's Blog difficulty is pondered:

Still, mere difficulty of text in Aristotle or any other philosopher could be irrelevant to the question of whether he can speak to us, and do it in a way to make us sit up and take serious philosophical notice. The current philosophical scene is dominated by two figures, Martin Heidegger and Ludgwig Wittgenstein. Consider the experience in store for anyone who chances to take a first look at a page in the work of either one.

At least there's some consolation in that Aristotle's Physics is easier than contemporary physics.  ¶ 9:00 AM
