hey ! here is your answer
The Age of Enlightenment was a movement that emerged in the late 17th century and carried on through the 18th and 19th centuries. It was the beginning of a point in history where people searched for answers outside of religious institutions. It led people to ask questions about the sciences, and not always have to fear persecution for it. The Enlightenment brought a lot of change to western culture. The Enlightenment challenged social structures, religion, and forms of government. It gave opportunity for people to use reason to come to conclusions about things in life. The writings of many enlightenment writers brought on a lot of debates regarding women, slavery, and colonialism. Many women played active roles in the age of enlightenment but it proved to be a pro-male movement. Although a few writers supported the rights of women; many of them did not. The biases of the Enlightenment thinkers placed women in traditional roles and they did not take into consideration the large role that women played in their philosophical movement. This prompted women to start fighting for their rights and they we’re backed by several of their male contemporaries. Not everyone had a positive reaction to the things that these strong educated women were doing but their hard work inspired other women who would be the leaders of modern feminism.
