| The Enlightenment was an intellectual and cultural movement in the 17th and 18th centuries that emphasized reason, individualism, and skepticism towards traditional authorities. Originating in Europe, it advocated for liberty, tolerance, fraternity, separation of church and state, and the scientific method. This era significantly influenced modern political and philosophical thought, laying the foundation for contemporary democratic societies. | |||
