Abstract | [Irving Stone], a master of the contemporary biographical novel who spun narratives around the lives of such diverse historical figures as Mary Todd Lincoln and Michelangelo, has died at age 86. With "Lust for Life," Stone's 1934 epic of artist Vincent Van Gogh, Stone virtually created a new art form of fictionalized portraits, which he sometimes called "biohistory: the telling of history in terms of the human beings who lived it." Stone took on complex characters who intrigued him - Mary Todd Lincoln in "Love is Eternal," published in 1954; Michelangelo in "The Agony and the Ecstasy," 1961; Sigmund Freud in "The Passions of the Mind," 1971; and Charles Darwin in "The Origin," 1980 - and approached his subjects as a detective, searching for facts that would provide insight into their lives. |
