The Dignity of Work (L’Honneur du Travail) by Charles Péguy.
This episode is an audio version of an essay written in 1913 by French poet and essayist Charles Péguy, highlighting the different ways of approaching work (artisan vs. bourgeois), and the continuity of culture over time vs. the rupture brought on by the industrial revolution. Well worth your time and consideration. In the next episode I’ll share my thoughts on this essay and connect it to other thinkers grappling with the same themes.
Thanks for listening!
