The necessity of reforms, including urgent social issues such as economic and political empowerment of the urban classes and personal freedom for the peasantry, was being addressed in numerous written works.
Reformide vajalikkust, sealhulgas kiireloomulisi sotsiaalseid küsimusi, nagu linnaklasside majandusliku ja poliitilise mõjuvõimu suurendamine ja isiklik vabadus talurahvale, käsitleti arvukates kirjutistes.
