Jeremy McQuoid leads you through three hugely significant 'movements' each of which has profoundly shaped the history of the western world. First, the 'Enlightenment' with the shift in philosophy from a reliance on revelation to a confidence in reason: then the 'Great Awakening', that extraordinary period of unparalleled revival in the 18th century: and finally the French Revolution, with its repercussions in political thought, and the church's response to it.
