	JEAN-CHRISTOPHE by Romain Rolland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Rolland was born in 1866 at Clamecy, in the center of France, of a French family of pure descent, and educated in Paris and Rome.
		Rolland shows the life of his hero from the very first stirrings in the cradle to the shadow at the road's end, or, as he himself significantly spaces it, from dawn to dawn again, from birth to rebirth.
		Rolland is engrossed with the joy of creation and the exercise of his excellent power of observation and analysis, but he forgets that there is an active audience, and that Jean-Christophe as a safety valve for his own energy is small justification for his ten volumes.

		The trajectory of Rolland's praise appears to have ultimately resulted in the suggestion that Lu Xun be nominated for the Nobel Prize for literature.
		Although "The True Story of Ah Q" was a negative depiction of the Chinese national character, the discourse of national character led to its valorization as a "positive" example of modern Chinese literature and exalted Lu Xun as an exemplar of Chinese national character in the Chinese imagination-a Nobel Prize contender.
