The Glassworkers of Carmaux: French Craftsmen and Political Action in a Nineteenth-Century City (Harvard Studies in Urban History)
- Used Book in Good Condition
This award-winning study analyzes in close detail the experiences of glassworkers as mechanization transformed their trade from a highly skilled art to a semiskilled occupation. Arguing that changes in the organization of work altered the lifestyle and political outlook of the glassworker, Joan Scott uses local archival materials and demographic records to reconstruct the experience of ordinary workingmen.
