Algebra, VIII, p. 139, § 8. Semisimple Rings

Let M be a finitely generated semisimple A-module. Denote its support (VIII, p. 66) by SM\mathscr{S}_M and its endomorphism ring by B. For every λ∈SM\lambda \in \mathscr{S}_M, choose a simple A-module SλS_{\lambda} of class λ\lambda, and denote the left B-module HomA(Sλ,M)_A(S_{\lambda},M) by VλV_{\lambda}.

a) The ring B is semisimple.

b) The mapping λ↦\lambda \mapsto cl(Vλ_{\lambda}) is a bijection from the support SM\mathscr{S}_M of M to the set of classes of simple B-modules.

c) For every λ∈SM\lambda \in \mathscr{S}_M, the isotypical component of type λ\lambda of the A-module M is equal to the isotypical component of type VλV_{\lambda} of the B-module M.

Viewed as a B-module, M is semisimple (VIII, p. 85, Proposition 5) and faithful. Its countermodule is finitely generated because we have AM⊂A_M\subset EndB(M)_B(M). Hence, the ring B is semisimple (Proposition 4). If (x1,...,xr)(x_1, . . . , x_r) is a generating sequence of the A-module M, then the mapping b↦(bx1,...,bxr)b\mapsto (bx_1, . . . , bx_r) from BsB_s to MrM^r is B-linear and injective. Every simple B-module is isomorphic to a submodule of BsB_s (VIII, p. 136, Proposition 1), hence to a B-submodule of M. The proposition then follows immediately from Proposition 5 of VIII, p. 85.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
