View full profile →

Romain Rolland was a French dramatist, novelist, essayist, and musicologist, awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1915. He is best known for his ten-volume novel cycle Jean-Christophe, which traces the life of a German musical genius, and for his passionate advocacy for pacifism, humanism, and international understanding during and after World War I. A lifelong admirer of Beethoven and Tolstoy, he sought to bridge the gap between art and social conscience.
