About the Project:
The Liberty Project is an assignment in which extensive research is performed based on only primary and secondary sources, for the value of the content, about the era of Enlightenment after the Renaissance that occured roughly about the 18th century. This movement emphasized individualism, free thought and intellectualism rather than other customary traditions. The era was heavily influenced throughout the world by 17th century philosophers such as Descrates, Locke, Voltaire, Rousseau and Newton. The Enlightenment took part to influence the formation of the United States of America and as a result, other parts of the world were influenced by the American Enlightenment, resulting in various changes that have effects on the present world of this day. The project has been finalized in two parts: a blog that has recorded the process of research and creation of the second part, a research paper transformed into an online wiki that gives additional support with visuals and hyperlinks in order to establish further knowledge and comprehension to any reader.
