The Craftsman
Book • 2008
In 'The Craftsman,' Richard Sennett argues that craftsmanship involves a deep-seated desire to do a job well for its own sake.
He explores how this ethos has evolved historically and its significance for personal well-being and societal values.
Sennett discusses the interplay between bodily practices, technical understanding, and the role of tools and repair in craftsmanship.
He also counters the modern devaluation of manual work, highlighting the dignity and importance of self-chosen labor.
