章節(jié)摘錄
of Jean Christophe applies perfectly to himself: "Lesucces n6tait pas son but; son but etait la foi." [Notsuccess, but faith was his goal.] Fame loved Rolland who loved fame from afar, un-obtrusively. "It were pity," fame seemed to say, "todisturb this mans work. The seeds must lie for a while in the darkness, enduring patiently, until the time comesfor germination." Reputation and the work were grow-hag in two different worlds, awaiting contact. A smallcommunity of admirers had formed after the publicationof Beethoven. They followed Jean Christophe in hispilgrimage. The faithful of the "Cahiers de la quin-zaine" won new friends. Without any help from thepress, through the unseen influence o responsive sym-paties., the circulation of his works grew. Transla- tions were published. Paul Seippel, the distinguishedSwiss author, penned a comprehensive biography.newspapers had begun to print his name. The crown- Rolland had found many devoted admirers before theing of his completed work by the Academy was nothingmore than the sound of a trumpet summoning the armies of his admirers to a review. All at once accounts ofRolland broke uponthe world like a flood, shortly be-fore he had attained his fiftieth year, In 1912 he was still unknown; in 1914 he had a wide reputation. Witha cry of astonishment, a generation recognized its leader,and Europe became aware of the first product of the newuniversal European spirit. There is a mystical significance in Romain Rollandsrise to fame, iust as in every event of his life. Fame came late to this man whom fame had padded by during the bitter years of mental distress and material need.Nevertheless it came at the right hour, since it camebefore the war. Rollands renown put a sword into hisband. At the decisive moment he had power and avoice to speak for Europe. He stood on a pedestal, sothat he was visible above the medley. In truth famewas granted at a fitting time, when through sufferingand knowledge Rolland had grown ripe for his highestfunction, to assume his European responsibility. Repu- tation, and the power that reputation gives, came at amoment when the world of the courageous needed aman who should proclaim against the world itself theworlds eternal message of brotherhood.CHAPTER XIII ROLLAND AS THE EMBODIMENT OF THE EUROPEAN SPIRIT HUS does Rollands life pass from obscurity into the light of day. Progress is slow, but the impulsion comes from powerful energies. Themovement towards the goal is not always obvious,and yet his life is associated as is none other with thedisastrously impending destiny of Europe. Regardedfrom the outlook of fulfillment, we discern that all theostensibly counteracting influences, the years of incon-spicuous and apparently vain struggle, have been neces-sary; we see that every incident has been symbolic.The career develops like a work of art, building itselfup in a wise ordination of will and chance. We shouldtake too mean a view of destiny, were we to think itthe outcome of pure sport that this man hitherto unknownshould become a moral force in the world during thevery years when, as never before, there was need forone who would champion the things of the spirit. The year 1914 marks the close of Romain Rollandsprivate life. Henceforth his career belongs to theworld; his biography becomes part of history; his per-sonal experiences can no longer be detached from hispublic activities. The solitary has been forced out of ROLLAND AND THE EUROPEAN SPIRIT53 his workroom to accomplish his task in the world. Theman whose existence has been so retired, must now livewith doors and windows open. His every essay, hisevery letter, is a manifesto. His life from now onwardshapes itself like a heroic drama. From the hour whenhis most cherished ideal, the unity of Europe, seemebent on its own destruction, he emerged from his re-tirement to become a vital element of his time, an im-personal force, a chapter in the history of the Europeanspirit. Just as little as Tolstois life can be detachedfrom his propagandist activities, just so little is therejustification in this case for an attempt to distinguish be-tween the man and his influence. Since 1914, RomainRolland has been one with his ideal and one with thestruggle for its realization. No longer is he author,poet, or artist; no longer does he belong to himself. Heis the voice of Europe in the season of its most poignantagony. He has become the conscience of the world. CHAPTER I THE WORK AND THE EPOCH OMAIN ROLLANDS work cannot be under- stood without an understanding of the epoch inwhich that work came into being. For herewe have a passion that springs from the weariness ofan entire country, a faith that springs from the disil-lusionment of a humiliated nation. The shadow of 1870was cast across the youth of the French author. Thesignificance and greatness of his work taken as a wholedepend upon the way in which it constitutes a spiritualbridge between one great war and the next. It arisesfrom a blood-stained earth and a storm-tossed horizonon one side, reaching across on the other to the newstruggle and the new spirit. It originates in gloom. A land defeated in war islike a man who has lost his god. Divine ecstasy is sud-denly replaced by dull exhaustion; a fire that blazedin millions iscinder remain. extinguished, so that nothing but ash andThere is a sudden collapse of all values.Enthusiasm has become meaningless; death is purpose-less; the deeds, which but yesterday were deemed heroic,are now looked upon as follies; faith is a fraud; beliefin oneself, a pitiful illusion. The impulse to fellowship ades; every one fights for his own hand, evades respon- ……
