Age of enlightenment - a photo on Flickriver

            The Enlightenment (also known as the Age of Enlightenment; in French: le Siècle des Lumières, lit. 'the Century of Lights'; and in German: Aufklärung, 'Enlightenment') was an intellectual movement which dominated the world of ideas in Europe in the 18th century. The Enlightenment included a range of ideas centered on reason as the primary source of authority and legitimacy, and came to advance ideals such as liberty, progress, tolerance, fraternity, constitutional government, and separation of church and state. In France, the central doctrines of les Lumières were individual liberty and religious tolerance in opposition to an absolute monarchy and the fixed dogmas of the Roman Catholic Church. The Enlightenment was marked by an emphasis on the scientific method and reductionism along with increased questioning of religious orthodoxy. From Wikipedia

We need a new Age of enlightenment

La Ilustración fue un movimiento cultural e intelectual europeo (especialmente en Francia e Inglaterra) que se desarrolló desde fines del siglo XVII hasta el inicio de la Revolución francesa, aunque en algunos países se prolongó durante los primeros años del siglo XIX. Fue denominada así por su declarada finalidad de disipar las tinieblas de la humanidad mediante las luces de la razón. El siglo XVIII es conocido, por este motivo, como el Siglo de las Luces.

Los pensadores de la Ilustración sostenían que la razón humana podía combatir la ignorancia, la superstición y la tiranía para construir un mundo mejor. La Ilustración tuvo una gran influencia en aspectos económicos, políticos y sociales de la época. La expresión estética de este movimiento intelectual se denominará neoclasicismo.
