Frage 103

A weaver has finished his training but does not yet have a workshop of his own, and works for wages in another man's shop. What was such a worker called?

  1. An apprentice, still learning the craft and not yet paid a wage
  2. A journeyman, trained and paid but still working for a masterRichtige Antwort
  3. A master, since he had finished his training in the craft
  4. The head of the guild, elected each year by the trained workers

Erklärung

Completing the term of training earned the right to be paid for the work, but a workshop of one's own required formal admission to the top rank of the craft, so this middle position was that of a trained employee. Calling him a master fails because mastership was a standing granted by the guild after a test, not simply the point at which learning stopped.
