Question Format 1: Identify the Enlightenment Thinker from a Quote

This is the single most common 10.2 question format. A quotation from a key thinker is presented; Maria must identify the author or the central idea.

Sample stimulus: "The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. Wherever law ends, tyranny begins."

Strategy: Recognize themes. Talk of natural rights, government by consent, or the right of revolution signals Locke. Talk of the general will or man being born free but living in chains signals Rousseau. Separation of powers signals Montesquieu. Free speech or religious toleration signals Voltaire. Absolute sovereign in exchange for security signals Hobbes. Education and rights for women signals Wollstonecraft.
