My Time Capsule

September 15, 1803.

Philadelphia (U.S.A)

Hello!

My name is James Franklin, and I am a assistant to Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd president of the U.S.
I am one of his assistant since he started with his presidence, and I have to admit that he is the best person I know. Jefferson defends people rights, and he knows what's better for them, always making them happy.
I am doing this time capsule because I want that people know some of the most important events on 18th and 19th century. I want explain what was Thomas Jefferson like and how we were living there.

Yours faithfully,

James Henry Franklin II

"Sapere Aude"

Kant fou el millor filòsof i geògraf alemany de tota la història. Ell va descriure la Il·lustració i intentá donar-li un poc més de sentit a la filosofia universal.

Per a Kant la Il·lustració era la eixida de l’home de la minoria de edat. Segons ell, ser menor d’edat t’incapacitava de fer qualsevol cosa relacionada amb la raó, i això feia se no pogueres ser independent.  Ell es basava en que si es raonava correctament, la societat podria estar en un progrés continu.

El movimet Il·lustrat el que intentava era lluitar per a que la gent pensara i raonara, ja que tenien la capacitat de poder fer-ho, i a més, aconseguir-ho de la manera que fora, ja siga enfrentant-se a l’autoritat, com publicant textos als llibres, encara que moltes vegades, no sempre s’aconseguia implantar les idees, ja que l’església encara tenia un paper molt important a l’època, i aquesta no recolzava ninguna idea que no estiguera relacionada amb Deu o la religió en si mateixa.

Kant ve ser el que va  dir aquella famosa frase en llatí que va destacar en els nous períodes de temps en el que la societat anava a entrar; “Sapere Aude”, el qaul significa “Atreveix-te a pensar”. Açò vol dir que tingues el valor de valerte pel que saps.
