Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement emphasizing reason and individualism. Voltaire (advocated for civil liberties, freedom of speech) and John Locke (developed ideas on natural rights, social contract) were key Enlightenment figures. Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield were part of the Great Awakening (religious revival). Isaac Newton was a scientist (not a primary Enlightenment intellectual figure in the context of philosophical/political Enlightenment leadership). George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were American Founding Fathers (influenced by Enlightenment but not primary Enlightenment figures in the European - centered intellectual movement's core).

A. Voltaire and John Locke
