Relation of books, texts, and documents[edit]

I want to systematically categorize some works from 200 BCE - 200 CE in categories organized by century. Many works are already categorized in Category:Christian texts by century, so I thought I would create a more general Category:Texts by century.

What I'm struggling with is the relationship between documents, texts, and books. I suggest the following relationship: works > documents > texts > books, meaning that Category:Books is a subcategory of Category:Texts, which is a subcategory of Category:Documents, and so on. However, I noticed that Category:Documents is currently a subcategory of Category:Texts, the opposite of my proposal.

I suggest that Category:Literature includes themes, movements, etc., whereas members of Category:Intellectual works and all its subcategories are instances of particular artistic works. Other relevant categories are Category:Sources and Category:Publications.
