c. oppressive

a. rights.

The Age of Enlightenment was an intellectual movement during the 18th century. The movement placed reason at the centre of all human activity, and demanded all other ideas to derive from it. It also encouraged new principles such as liberty, equality, constitutional government, and the separation of church and state.

The Enlightenment was opposed to the absolute monarchies that dominated European political life. It was also the period that saw the development of the scientific method as a way to acquire knowledge about the world.
