To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Colbert's main steps were taken in 1664, 1665, and 1669.
In the year first mentioned the Conseil du Commerce was established to consider the regulations of trade and in- dustry. In the year following commissioners were sent into the provinces to gather from the masters and workmen all the details relating to their several trades. Colbert had expressed the belief that the French artisans, masters and men, would receive the commissioners with open arms.
In this he was disappointed. Guy Poquelin a
...nd Fran?ois de la Croix not infrequently met with serious opposition and on occasion were subject to deliberate boycott. In the result, however, by 1669 the regulations controlling industry had been substantially completed by the pro- mulgation of four important ordinances.
Four years later, still pursuing his aim of obtaining fine workmanship, which he believed to be the essence of prosperous industry, Colbert obtained the issue of the ordinance concerning the gilds or corps de metiers^ the purpose of which was to strengthen these associations in a manner which would enable them once again to exercise a useful and practical control over both masters and men.
