Age of Enlightenment: Cultural and Intellectual Developments (Part II)

Age of Enlightenment: Cultural and Intellectual Developments (Part II)

In this second episode on the Enlightenment, Mr. Bruns explores how new ideas transformed European intellectual and cultural life between 1648–1815. Discover how salons, coffeehouses, lending libraries, and Masonic lodges helped spread Enlightenment thought across Europe, creating a new “public sphere” of discussion and debate.

This episode also breaks down how Adam Smith, the physiocrats, and Anne Robert Jacques Turgot challenged mercantilism with new ideas about free markets and natural economic laws. Mr. Bruns explains the philosophical impact of thinkers like Voltaire, David Hume, and Baron d'Holbach as they questioned religion, promoted skepticism, and reshaped European views on faith and reason.

Perfect for AP European History students reviewing Cultural and Intellectual Developments, this episode connects Enlightenment ideas to larger changes over time that helped shape modern Europe, liberalism, capitalism, secularism, and revolutionary thought.
