Romain Rolland
Romain Rolland (29 January 1866-30 December 1944) was a French dramatist, novelist, essayist, art historian and mystic who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1915 "as a tribute to the lofty idealism of his literary production and to the sympathy and love of truth with which he has described different types of human beings".
Jean-Christophe (1904?1912) is the novel in ten volumes by for which Romain Rolland received the Prix Femina in 1905 the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1915.
The first four volumes are sometimes grouped as Jean-Christophe, the next three as Jean-Christophe à Paris, and the last three as La fin du voyage ("Journey's End").
