Serbian term or phrase: raciolatrija
"Od prosviteljske raciolatrije, bezuslovne vere u moć razuma, do kritike evropske racionalnosti..."
Raciolatrija = preterano poštovanje ili obožavanje razuma. Da li postoji odgovarajući termin na engleskom ili mora opisno?

The worship of reason
Explanation:
Ako sam dobro shvatila,izraz raciolatrija se odnosi na pojam specifičan za razdoblje Prosvjetiteljstva (engl. The Enlightenment) u kojem se pretjerano štovalo, obožavalo (worship) razum (reason). Nisam našla nijednu referencu u kojoj bi se taj pojam prevodio kao jedna riječ, ali sam našla više njih gdje se prevodi kao "the worship of reson" pa zato predlažem ovo rješenje.
