THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND MODERNISM INVOLVED BOTH THE IDEA OF SKEPTICISM AND THE IDEA OF PROGRESS

 You can claim that it also involved the idea of reason.  This is quite true.

But reason is a term without a clear meaning.

1. a cause, explanation, or justification for an action or event.

2.
the power of the mind to think, understand, and form judgments by a process of logic.

These are not my definitions of reason, but they will do for this purpose. it is somewhere in the cross disciplinary fog of rhetoric, psychology, politics, sociology, anthropology, and philosophy.
