Excerpt: ... Theriault 1 The Industrial Revolution and Its Impact on the Coal Miners The Industrial Revolution had a profound impact on workers in the Coal Mines, as portrayed in the novel Germinal by Emile Zola. The Industrial Revolution posed an impact on not just the physical aspects of the working class, but also on their thought processes and state of mind as shown with the radicalization of the miners and the strikes they staged.
