The Enlightenment and the Declaration of Independence are both rooted in the principles of reason, individual rights, and the belief in human progress. Enlightenment thinkers, such as john Locke, emphasized the concepts of natural rights and the social contract, which directly influenced the Declaration’s assertion of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Both movements sought to challenge traditional authority and promote democratic ideals, emphasizing the importance of consent in governance. Ultimately, they share a commitment to the idea that individuals have the power to shape their own destinies through rational thought and collective action.
"Common Sense," written by Thomas Paine, was published on January 10, 1776. The Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776. Therefore, the Declaration of Independence was issued approximately six months after the publication of "Common Sense."
Thomas Paine wrote about 'people had the right to govern themselves rather than a king' but, the Declaration of Independence states to break free from Brittan.

well many people during the revolutionary era studied the works of john Locke who developed a multitude of Enligtenment ideas and philosophies such as Life,liberty, and happiness, and natural/inalienable rights. SO basically when Thomas Jefferson was writing the Declaration of Independence, he considered john locke's principles and adopted them.

No, the word 'declare' is a verb, a word for an action.Example: You have to declare the truthfulness of your testimony.The noun forms for the verb to declare are declarer, declaration, and the gerund, declaring, all common nouns.
No. Like any other common noun, declaration is only capitalized at the beginning of a sentence or when it is part of a title.
Enlightenment means to come to understanding. it has different meaning to different people but it generally refers to perfect understanding.
