Not infrequently the best of the young farmers, after being violently expelled from school at fourteen, give themself to work, and try again, once reached the major age, to educate themselves. On the other hand, this also applies to young workers. But parents should not have the right to oblige them. And the intellectuals should be present to help parents understand. Intellectuals would be perfect, would be located above the social classes.
But the intellectual class is largely ordinary, and especially for some time, has been a culture of intellectual officials.
Culture used as an instrument wielded by professors to manufacture professors, and that in turn will manufacture professors. Students of folk traditions almost always at some distance from "people" and invite us to look more or less explicitly, with a smug smile and good-natured interest, the quaint displays of traditional life.
