Print popularized the ideas of the Enlightenment thinkers. Collectively, their
writings provided a critical commentary on tradition, superstition and despotism.
They argued for the rule of reason rather than custom, and demanded that
everything be judged through the application of reason and rationality. They
attacked the sacred authority of the Church and the despotic power of the state,
thus eroding the legitimacy of a social order based on tradition. The writings of
Voltaire and Rousseau were read widely; and those who read these books saw the
world through new eyes, eyes that were questioning, critical and rational.
Print created a new culture of dialogue and debate. All values, norms and
institutions were re-evaluated and discussed by a public that had become aware
of the power of reason, and recognised the need to question existing ideas and
beliefs. Within this public culture, new ideas of social revolution came into being.
