Summary: "Deux essais: Octave Mirbeau, Romain Rolland" by Marc Elder is a critical study written in the early 20th century. This work examines the literary and philosophical contributions of two prominent French authors, Octave Mirbeau and Romain Rolland, highlighting their perspectives on art, society, and human experience.
