Objective:
Given an historical presentation on the various philosophes of the 1700's, students will be able to identify, explain and evaluate the various points of view as to the nature of man, and the role that government plays in the rights exercised by its citizens.

Rationale:
The study of early philosophes can help students to understand the philosophical underpinnings of the world in which we live today. More specifically, the study of political philosophers, such as Locke, Hobbes, Montesquieu and Voltaire, can help students to understand the specific ramifications a political philosophy can have on the rights they are granted as citizens.

Evidence:
By listing and explaining specific beliefs to specific philosophes, students will demonstrate a basic understanding of where current rights of citizens and limitations of government began.
