Excerpt from La Fondation Universitaire de Belleville: Travail Intellectual Et Travail Manuel; Premiers Efforts Et Premi�re Ann�e

C'est ensuite toute une �cole litt�raire qui commence � George Sand, qui arrive � son apog�e avec Ruskin et Tolstoi', et qui attribue au travail manuel toutes les ver tus r�demptrices tant pour l'individu que pour la soci�t�.

Et c'est enfin la classe ouvri�re, particuli�rement celle instruite dans les doctrines socialistes, qui voit dans le travail manuel la principale et m�me la seule cause de la production, l'unique source de la richesse.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the evolution of attitudes towards manual labor, tracing its historical devaluation to the influence of slavery. The author argues that the modern elevation of intellectual labor over manual labor is a product of industrialization, which has obscured the personal connection between the worker and the product of their labor. The author critiques the Marxist assertion that manual labor is the sole source of wealth, arguing that the creative act is one of identifying human need and finding ways to meet it, a task often undertaken by entrepreneurs. The book concludes by envisioning a future where distinctions between intellectual and manual labor are blurred and both are equally valued. This book will appeal to readers interested in the history of work, the sociology of class, and the relationship between labor and creativity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780266169703_0
