17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. Romain Rolland (1866–1944) French man of letters, born at Clamecy, Nièvre, on the 29th of January 1866. He was educated at Clamecy, and later in Paris, where he had a distinguished academic career. From 1889–91 he was a member of the French School in Rome, in 1892 went with an archæological expedition to Italy, and in 1895 was appointed professor of the history of art at the École Normale Supérieure, later occupying the same position at the Sorbonne, where he introduced the study of the history of music. He produced many critical and historical works, among them Histoire de l’Opéra en Europe avant Lulli et Scarlatti (1895); Des Causes de la Décadence de la Peinture italienne (1895); and Le Théâtre du Peuple (1903); besides studies on Millet (1902); Beethoven (1903) and Michel-Ange (1906). His most famous work, however, is the romance of Jean Christophe, the biography of a German musician, one of the most remarkable productions of the present day. The work is in three series, Jean Christophe, Jean Christophe à Paris and La Fin du Voyage. It appeared in ten volumes, the first, L’Aube, in 1904, and the last, La Nouvelle Journée, in 1912. A series of articles published by Romain Rolland in the Journal de Genève during September and October 1914 created an extremely bad impression in France owing to the “defeatist” attitude of the author. His later works include Au-dessus de la Mêlée, of which the ninth edition appeared in 1915; Colas Brangnon, a novel (1918); Les Précurseurs (1919) and Voyage musical aux pays du passé (1919).
