IMMANUEL KANT'S "WHAT IS ENLIGHTENMENT?"

Kant based on the logical reason to go out of the obscurantism and finally find the light (real truth). Kant named this era "Enlightenment". He said more older the man would be that man must be more illustrated, because the exprerience make that. 


Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed immaturity. Immaturity is the inability to use one's understanding without guidance from another. This immaturity is self-imposed when its cause lies not in lack of understanding, but in lack of resolve and courage to use it without guidance from another. Sapere Aude! [dare to know] "Have courage to use your own understanding!"--that is the motto of enlightenment.
