Important Philosophies of the European Enlightenment

Clara and Ashwin discuss how the philosophies of the Enlightenment period in Europe sparked social and political change in history. **While editing, the authors of the podcast noted a minor historical error. In the podcast, they stated that Voltaire preceded Locke. Locke lived from 1632 to 1704, while Voltaire lived from 1694 to 1778. As Voltaire would have been a child when Locke died, it can be inferred that Locke developed his ideas prior to Voltaire.
