Journal Article
THE CULTURED MIND, THE SKILLFUL HAND: Manual Training Schools and the Democratization of the Arts and Crafts Movement
2005
Overview
The Arts and Crafts philosophy developed among British intellectuals such as Thomas Carlyle and John Ruskin as a reaction to the industrial revolution (Anderson 1926, 70-74). The intellectuals found the answer to their perceived inadequacy of American goods in the Arts and Crafts movement, and as a result, it spread to the United States in the 1880s and 1890s, reaching the height of its popularity between 1900 and the start of World War I (Clark 1972, xii-xm). The outbreak of World War I was the final nail in the coffin of the manual training school movement as factories producing war goods required only skilled hands, with little need for cultured minds.
