Explanation: psychologically speaking, in 17th and 18th century or in 19th century (Marx) there is still no concept of unconscious and unconscious aspect of human nature. When concept of "unconscious" appears, things will change significantly because discovery of unconscious point at irrational aspect of human nature. In contrast to Enlightenment, after Freud there is not so strong convinction about rational basis of human nature/society.
