Bellringer : Enlightenment Terms

The Enlightenment was a pivotal movement in the late 18th century that emphasized reason and scientific inquiry, emerging as an extension of the Renaissance. Central to this era was the Scientific Revolution, where traditional beliefs about the universe were challenged. The heliocentric model, asserting the sun as the center of the solar system, was a breakthrough idea. During this time, the Scientific Method became crucial for understanding natural phenomena. Enlightened despots embraced these reformative ideas, wielding absolute power while promoting progress based on rational thought.
