Yr Oleuedigaeth

Mudiad diwylliannol a deallusol a flodeuodd yn ystod y ddeunawfed ganrif yn Ewrop a threfedigaethau Gogledd America oedd yr Oleuedigaeth (hefyd Cyfnod yr Ymoleuo). Roedd ei ddilynwyr yn pwysleisio rhesymeg a'r unigolyn yn hytrach na thraddodiad fel ffyrdd i gyrraedd oes newydd mewn byd wedi'i seilio ar wyddoniaeth, llywodraeth a dyneiddiaeth.
