NAME:
The lights, which thought that Gutenberg had given men a universal promise, cultivated a mode of utopia. They imagined being able, from the private practices of each one, to build a space for the critical exchange of ideas and opinions. Kant's dream was that each one would be both a reader and an author, that he would pass judgments on the institutions of their time, whatever they ___________ and that, at the same time, could reflect on the judgment issued by the others. What was once only allowed by handwritten communication or the circulation of printed material finds today a powerful support with electronic text.
