Explain the influence of Enlightenment ideas?

The underlying view or Enlightenment ran in every aspect of culture. It affected, most notably, the arts, poetry, and religion. In the arts such as music, Enlightenment imputed a sense of man's pleasure and it destroyed the last vestiges of church restraint. Music was composed to portray the composers personal emotion with free flow. In poetry, there were fewer restrictions than ever and it became more sensual and unrestrained. In religion, man became more openly lovers of themselves than ever. Enlightenment encouraged man to look within himself for truth instead of relying on the traditional view that truth is found only in The Bible and God.
