Answer:
Hey Mate!!
Role of philosophers in French revolution
The ideas of envisaging a society based on freedom
and equal laws and opportunities for all, were put forward
by philosophers such as John Locke and Jean Jacques Rousseau.
In his Two Treatises of Government, Locke sought to refute the
doctrine of the divine and absolute right of the monarch.
Rousseau carried the idea forward, proposing a form
of government based on a social contract between people and their representatives.
In The Spirit of the Laws, Montesquieu proposed
a division of power within the government between the
legislative, the executive and the judiciary.
The ideas of these philosophers were discussed intensively
in salons and coffee-houses and spread among people
through books and newspapers.
