The Enlightenment was a period of time during the 16 to the 18th century where there were constantly new emerging ideas about philosophy, science, humanism and many other categories. During this time, people started to move away from the church and believe more in the scientific view of a problem or an observation.This led to the idea that people could think and believe for themselves and follow science instead of following in the church's beliefs. Some of the influences the encouraged The Enlightenment would be The Protestant Reformation since that was where the concept of scientific beliefs started.
