The correct answer is D. Baron de Montesquieu.

Explanation

Charles Louis de Secondat, lord of la Brède and baron de Montesquieu (1689 - 1755) was a French philosopher who stood out for his ideas related to the intellectual and cultural movement of the Enlightenment. His works focused on the theory of separation of powers, which has been introduced in many constitutions around the world. His most famous work on the division of powers was his treatise "On the Spirit of the Laws" in which he states that in antiquity the functions of the State (necessary for the protection of the citizen) were monopolized in a single entity, which usually associates with despotism. Therefore, he proposes to distribute public powers among different entities, which limit each other, avoiding the monopolization of power in a single person or entity. So, the correct answer is D. Baron de Montesquieu.

The Inquisition was created in the Middle Ages (13th century) and was directed by the Roman Catholic Church. It was made up of courts that judged all those considered a threat to the doctrines (set of laws) of this institution. All suspects were persecuted and tried, and those who were convicted served sentences ranging from temporary or life imprisonment to death at the stake, where the convicts were burned alive in the public square.

The Society of Jesus was founded by Saint Ignatius of Loyola in the Counter-Reformation in the year 1534. He, together with a group of students from the University of Paris, made vows of obedience to the doctrine of the Catholic Church and was recognized by papal bull in 1540.

They soon spread to Portugal, having been requested by D. J. III as missionaries, and acquired great influence in the social environment, between the 16th and 17th centuries. The Jesuits, as they were called the members of the Society of Jesus, were dedicated to missionary and educational work, being mostly educators or confessors of the kings of the time, one of them was D. Sebastião de Portugal.
