The Enlightenment World History

Development Enlightenment: movement that stressed reason and thought and the power of individuals to solve problems (17th and 18th century) Reasons: Scientific Revolution (rational thought) Absolute Monarchs Glorious Revolution in England Major Focus: Change government to give people more power

Development (Cont.) Thomas Hobbes: Men needed laws Social Contract: people gave rights to gov’t for law and order John Locke: Natural Rights: Life, Liberty and Property People could rebel against unjust rulers

The Philosophes (French “Social” Philosophers) Five Major Concepts: Reason: truth through logic Nature: “natural” laws are good Happiness: joy in the physical world Progress: improve society Liberty: freedoms

Philosophes were educated men who studied history, philosophy, science, religion, etc… It was illegal for them to meet in France. They meet in “salons” to discuss politics and hide from the authorities. What does this salon look like?

Philosophes (Cont.) Voltaire: criticized church & gov’t/ fought for personal freedoms Montesquieu: separation of power/ divide power in gov’t Rousseau: gov’t should be formed by the people Beccaria: stressed reforms to the justice system

– Jean Jacques Rousseau “The end of law is, not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.” – Thomas Hobbes "Man was born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” – Jean Jacques Rousseau “God gave us the gift of life; it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well.” – Voltaire “In the infancy of societies, the chiefs of state shape its institutions; later the institutions shape the chiefs of state” – Charles de Montesquieu

The Enlightenment Spreads Mary Wollstonecraft: pressed for women’s rights Art, Music and Literature: Neoclassical Art: influenced by Greco-Roman art Classical Music: light & elegant (Ex: Mozart and Beethoven) Novels: fictional stories became more popular Individualism: stressed individual thought over church and state/ led to more scientific, political and social reforms Enlightened Despots: Monarchs made reforms based on Enlightenment ideas (Ex: Austria, Russia)
