This research paper: A 4 page essay/research paper that analyzes the theory of "enlightened despotism," which was a popular notion during the eighteenth century Enlightenment era. During the second half of the eighteenth century, many European monarchs listened to the enlightened philosophers of the age and undertook far reaching reforms in both their institutions and policies (Gay 491). Nineteenth century historians have labeled these rulers as "Enlightened Despots" (Gay 491). This examination of these rulers seeks to understand to what extent, if any, that the policies instituted by these monarchs reflected a budding republicanism and the beginning of democracy, as well as how Enlightenment philosophies tended to regard the human condition. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
