The Age of Enlightenment developed a whole series of its guiding principles in the field of Practical Philosophy. This leaning toward things practical engendered changes with a bearing not only on the traditional system of the sciences and the structure of social institutions but also on forms of communication and not least rules for organizing private life. Proceeding from individual analyses and the epoch's own view of itself, the volume sets out to describe crucial features of these changes both in terms of the history of ideas and the culture of the day, with a view to placing investigation of the repercussions of these 'enlightened' practical doctrines on a sound historical footing.
