    About this ebook

    What is Enlightenment Age


    An intellectual and philosophical movement that took place in Europe, particularly Western Europe, during the 17th and 18th centuries known as the Age of Enlightenment or the Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was a movement that had global ramifications and repercussions. The Enlightenment encompassed a wide range of concepts that centered on the importance of human happiness, the pursuit of knowledge that was obtained through the use of reason and the evidence of the senses, and ideals such as natural law, liberty, progress, toleration, fraternity, constitutional government, and the separation of church and state.
