About This Novel

Fu Lei (April 7, 1908 - September 3, 1966) was a famous Chinese translator, writer, educator, and art critic. In his early years, he studied abroad at the University of Paris in France. He has translated a large number of French works, including works by Balzac, Romain Rolland, Voltaire and other famous writers. In the early 1960s, Fu Lei was admitted as a member of the French Balzac Research Society for his outstanding contributions in translating Balzac's works. Mr. Fu Lei has been translating Hong Fu throughout his life, and his translation career lasted for thirty years. His translations are characterized by expressiveness, smooth writing, rich word use, and good color changes. One of the three biographies of giants, it is a biography of a giant in music, art, and literature written by Romain Rolland. They are "The Biography of Beethoven", "The Biography of Michael Angelo" and "The Biography of Tolstoy" respectively. It is one of the most far-reaching celebrity biographies. Michael Angelo suffered misfortune, but still insisted on sculpture. His large number of works showed extraordinary ideal processing based on realism and became a typical symbol of the entire era. His artistic creation was deeply influenced by humanistic thoughts and the religious reform movement. He often used realist techniques and romantic fantasies to express the patriotism and the spirit of the struggle for freedom of the civilian class at that time. Michael Angelo's art is different from Leonardo da Vinci's scientific spirit and philosophical thinking. Instead, he poured his tragic passion into his works of art. This tragedy is expressed in a magnificent form, and the hero he creates is both a symbol of ideals and a reflection of reality. All these make his artistic creation an insurmountable peak in the history of Western art.
