History of the Rise and Influence of the Spirit of Rationalism in Europe

This study describes the period of great changes in European history — the decline in the belief of magic and miracles and emerging of the new way of thinking which has brought the rise of religious persecution, the gradual secularization of politics and the rise of toleration and rationalism.
