Satisfactory Essays

Out of this week’s reading, the one thing that I came to admire was the enlightenment period. The Enlightenment period began because of small groups. Men would meet in coffeehouses and the women would meet in salons. People could slow down, talk and dream. This caused a movement of people taking their dreams and ideas to a reality. This movement sparked the future of the world. This began the Scientific Revolution and the Glorious Revolution. With havening a movement of this scale, it could not be contained to one place. It expanded to France and eventually the Americas. The advancement in technology cased the western world to expand and lead to the form of the Americas. People began to travel based on their enlightenment and need for freedom.
