Answer:

The Enlightenment was a period of time where old ideas were challenged, and new ideas were considered.

Step-by-step explanation:

Philosophers and scientists believed that, through reason, changes could occur. ... The Great Awakening was a reaction against some of the ideas being emphasized in the Enlightenment.
