About this ebook

"Absolutism and Enlightenment" covers the final years of the last great European monarchies and the divestiture of monarchical power through reform and revolution. Emphasis is given to the absolute reign of Louis XIV of France, and the growth of constitutional monarchy in late-17th century England. Enlightenment thinkers, such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Locke, and their theoretical impact on the unraveling of royal power and the revolutions in France and America are discussed. Challenging review questions encourage meaningful reflection and historical analysis. A unit test and answer key are included.
