Before Kublai Khan took over China, it had an open social hierarchy system wherein the citizens could take up civil examinations in order to move forward. Kublai Khan turned this open system into a closed one and demoted the elite literary group.
He made sure that the elite were only those who had inherited it by birth. While this happened, the artisans and craftsmen were given increasing importance and therefore everyone turned towards art as a form of expression as a means of saving their lives. The- literati were made to write to entertain their elite masters.
Edwards was a philosopher and minister who held a sermon during the great awakening that warned sinners that they were going to hell unless they repented and asked god for mercy. I believe his sermon was called “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”
