Romain Rolland was one of the few personalities to vocally oppose the First World War, for which he received death threats, and had to leave Paris to settle in Switzerland. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1915, after the publication of his pacifist manifesto Above the Battle. This year is also the 70th anniversary of his death.
