Summary: "Les Industriels: Métiers et professions en France" by Émile de La Bédollière is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The book explores the lives and trades of workers in France, aiming to illuminate the roles of often-overlooked artisans and laborers. It seeks to bridge the gap between the affluent and the impoverished, showcasing the significant contributions of the working class to society. The opening of the work describes the author's intent to portray the everyday lives of the working class, emphasizing their importance and individuality over the more glamorous aspects of bourgeois life. The introduction quotes Rousseau, asserting that true understanding of a people comes from studying their private lives. La Bédollière reflects on how the working class has historically been marginalized yet has given rise to notable figures in various fields. He sets the stage for a detailed examination of different professions, beginning with a description of the role of the parish Swiss (church porter) in community life and rituals, highlighting the blend of responsibility and social significance attached to the role.
