Evaluate whether or not the glorious revolution of 1688 can be considered part of the enlightenment

Answer: In general, the Glorious Revolution was part of the Enlightenment

Explanation: The Glorious Revolution that took place in England in 1688 and 1689 can be considered part of the Enlightenment, or rather, this Revolution is part of the progress that initiated and implemented some of the Enlightenment's ideas, such as human rights, constitutional order and constitutional freedom, and implied the ideals of freedom, characteristic of the Enlightenment. The result of this "Revolution of 1688" as it is also called, are some changes in Britain concerning parliamentarism, more precisely parliament has gained more power than before, and significant power over the institution of the monarchy, which is considered the beginning of political democracy.

With regard to the Enlightenment, this Revolution gave citizens greater rights and created the atmosphere that these rights must be protected by Parliament, which is at the heart of the Enlightenment ideas, including the aforementioned constitutional parliamentarism as a guarantor of protecting the rights of citizens, again the idea of the Enlightenment. However, as the historians claim, the Revolution itself was not quite in the spirit of the Enlightenment, because there was a lack of religious tolerance by some participants in the Revolution.

Yet in general, it was in the spirit and the part of the Enlightenment.
