Written in 1784, "Answering the Question: What is Enlightenment?" is one of philosopher Immanuel Kant's most influential and famous essays. Here Kant addresses the causes for a lack of Enlightenment in society, and the preconditions a person must meet in order to gain it. Controversial for its critique of church and state with regard to how it tells citizens to think, he argues that any lack of Enlightenment is really due to lack of courage on the thinker's part. This essay is a great start to anyone interested in Kant, who is considered to be one of the last great Enlightenment philosophers.
