"Travail utile, fatigue inutile" est un texte fondamental. À l'heure des bullshit jobs, ce texte prémonitoire fait figure de manifeste, de bréviaire, alors que le modèle économique dévastateur mis en place depuis un demi-siècle semble parvenu en bout de course. La révolution industrielle, la démesure de la production dans le capitalisme émergent, nourri de la pensée libérale utilitariste, ont consacré l'idée d'un travail de plus en plus aliénant, qui a rompu avec le réel, le monde et la nature.

William Morris
Author · 46 books
William Morris was an English architect, furniture and textile designer, artist, writer, socialist and Marxist associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the English Arts and Crafts Movement. Morris wrote and published poetry, fiction, and translations of ancient and medieval texts throughout his life. His best-known works include The Defence of Guenevere and Other Poems (1858), The Earthly Paradise (1868–1870), A Dream of John Ball and the utopian News from Nowhere. He was an important figure in the emergence of socialism in Britain, founding the Socialist League in 1884, but breaking with the movement over goals and methods by the end of that decade. He devoted much of the rest of his life to the Kelmscott Press, which he founded in 1891. The 1896 Kelmscott edition of the Works of Geoffrey Chaucer is considered a masterpiece of book design.
