To correctly understand the phenomenom of the Enlightenment we must resort to its fundamentals sources of inspiration.
- The philosophy of Descartes - " Based on methodical doubt to admit only clear and obvious trhuts".
- And the scientific revolution. Supported by simple general laws of a physical nature.
The enlightened thought that these laws could be discovered by the Cartesian method and applied universally to the government and human societies.
That is why the elite of this era felt a great desire to learn and to teach what they had learned.
Culture is a way of
life of a group of
people who share
similar beliefs and
customs.
