Aspects of a Centenary

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 January 2010

Extract

The year 1966 marks the centenary of the birth of Romain Rolland which will be duly celebrated by various commemorative events. In this connection, the International Committee of the Red Cross would recall that the famous French writer, holder of the Nobel prize for literature, was at the beginning of the First World War a collaborator of the International Prisoners of War Agency, opened in Geneva in 1914. He worked voluntarily until July 1915 for the ICRC from which this Agency depended.
