"Stressing the importance of intuition rather than reason of a kind of intuitive penetration into the innermost nature of the creative individual and the time in which he lived Rolland saw history primarily in terms of the noble superior soul of a Beethoven triumphing over every adversity or Handel as the heroic embodiment of the popular spirit of his age. Because of its universality its profundity and spontaneity music he believed was often the first to give expression to fundamental changes in society that were then translated into words and only later into actions."
