Not necessarily. The opposite of Enlightenment thinking would be rejecting reason and evidence-based thinking altogether, rather than valuing imagination and emotion over reason. The Enlightenment promoted the use of reason and critical thinking, but it did not dismiss the importance of imagination and emotion entirely.
