Summary "Vidas Ejemplares: Beethoven—Miguel Ángel—Tolstoi" by Romain Rolland is a biographical work written in the early 20th century. The book explores the lives and achievements of three illustrious figures: Beethoven, Miguel Ángel, and Tolstoi, highlighting their artistic contributions and personal struggles. Overall, it appears to delve into themes of creativity, suffering, and the human spirit as embodied by these iconic personalities. The opening of the work establishes a somber yet inspirational tone, reflecting on the oppressive atmosphere of early 20th-century Europe marred by materialism and mediocrity. In this context, Rolland introduces the idea that true heroes emerge from suffering and moral conviction, leading the reader to anticipate poignant narratives about Beethoven, Miguel Ángel, and Tolstoi. The author conveys a sense of urgency to reconnect humanity with the values of justice, freedom, and creativity, setting the stage for an intimate exploration of the lives of these three greats as they navigated their passions and pains amidst societal struggles.
