Summary
Romain Rolland: Michelangelo
Romain Rolland was born in Clamency on January 29, 1866 and died in Vézelay on December 30, 1944. He was a French writer, dramatist and musicologist. He is a student of the Paris École Normale Supérieure and the Roman School of Archeology (he is a historian by profession). After completing his studies, he devoted himself to the study of musicology, where he received his doctorate with the thesis "History of European Opera before Ljiljan and Scarlatti".
He published his first book in 1902, when he was already 36 years old. Thirteen years later, in 1915, he received the Nobel Prize for Literature for his work Jean Christophe. In the explanation of the award it was said: "... for his contribution to the sublime idealism of the literary work and for the sensitivity and love for the truth that he used in describing different personalities."
Romain Roland was a passionate lover of art: opera, Michelangelo, Scarlatti, Beethoven. He was a personal friend of Richard Strauss.
He admired the pacifist ideas of Leo Tolstoy and Indian thinkers on the eve of the First World War. He exchanged views on these ideas with Gandhi and Tagore.
