Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre (French: Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre; June 21, 1905 - April 15, 1980), French philosopher, playwright, novelist, screenwriter, political activist, biographer, and literary critic. He is one of the key figures in existential and phenomenological philosophy, and one of the leading figures in French philosophy and Marxist philosophy in the 20th century.

He always declined official honors, stating that "a writer should not allow himself to become an institution". Sartre is also known for his open relationship with Simone de Beauvoir, a prominent feminist, existential philosopher, and author. Together, the two challenged the cultural and social assumptions and expectations they had grown up with, which they considered bourgeois ways of living and thinking. The conflict between oppressive, spiritually destructive conformity (mauvaise foi, literally "malice") and the "real" way of being became a major theme of Sartre's early work, a theme reflected in his major philosophical work, Being and Nothingness (French: L'Être et le Néant, 1943). Sartre introduced his philosophical thoughts in his work "Existentialism is a Humanism". (French: L'existentialisme est un humanisme, 1946).

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (French: Jean-Jacques Rousseau; June 28, 1712 - July 2, 1778) was a French philosopher, political scientist, educator, composer and romantic writer in the Enlightenment Age. He was born in Geneva. His "Is the Progress of Science and Art Conducive to the Improvement of Customs" and "On the Origin and Basis of Human Inequality" have profoundly influenced the development of Western philosophy; the profound influence of the people's sovereignty and democratic political philosophy discussed in his representative work "The Social Contract" can be seen in the modern Enlightenment, the French Revolution and even modern politics, philosophy and educational thought. He believed that both traditional and modern civil society began with private property. Rousseau's novel "Emile" is a philosophical treatise on the education of whole-person citizenship, which has a great influence on Kant. His romantic novel "New Héloïse" is very important for the development of novels in the pre-Romantic and Romantic periods. However, some well-known scholars believe that although Rousseau foreshadowed the birth of romanticism, his "modern literary posture" had actually "beyond sentimental romanticism" and his new view of language even "continued to Surrealism." Rousseau's autobiographical work "Confessions" is the beginning of modern autobiography, and his article "The Reveries of a Solitary Wanderer" also illustrates an "Age of Sensibility" movement in the eighteenth century, which is characterized by a greater emphasis on subjectivity and self-reflection, and also has an impact on modern writing. Rousseau's emphasis on issues such as individual freedom, authentic self, and subjective existence laid the foundation for modern existential philosophy. Rousseau's criticism of modern society and research on issues such as the origin of human society and language not only pioneered "historical sociology" and profoundly influenced later sociology and anthropology. He is also considered to have predicted the structuralist principles of the twentieth century, and is even regarded as a pioneer of postmodernist thought. Rousseau was also proficient in composition and music theory. He invented simplified musical notation and composed seven operas and several other forms of works. Its style belongs to the same period as Christoph Willibald Gluck and Carl Philip Emanuel Bach, and combines the characteristics of the post-Baroque and classical periods. His famous works include the one-act opera "Soothsayer in the Village", one of which was "Non, Colette n'est point trompe" which was later adapted by Beethoven into an independent piece.

Jean Sibelius (Swedish: Jean Sibelius, December 8, 1865 - September 20, 1957); formerly known as Johan Julius Christian Sibelius (Swedish: Johan Julius Christian Sibelius), was a Finnish composer active in the late Romantic and early modernist periods. He is widely regarded as Finland's greatest composer, and his music is often credited with helping Finland develop a stronger national identity in the late 19th century, when the country suffered multiple attempts at Russification. The core of his work are seven symphonies, which, like his other major works, are regularly performed and recorded in Finland and around the world. His other best-known works include the Finnish Ode, the Karelian Suite, the Waltze Sorrow, the Violin Concerto, the choral symphony Kullervo and the Swans of Tuonela (from the Ramminkainen Suite). His other works include works inspired by nature, Norse mythology and the Finnish national epic Kalevala; more than 100 songs for voice and piano; scores for several plays; the one-act opera "The Tower Girl"; chamber music, piano music, Masonic ritual music, and 21 choral works. Sibelius composed prolifically until the mid-1920s, but after completing the Seventh Symphony (1924), the score "The Tempest" (1926), and the symphonic poem "Tapiola" (1926), he stopped composing major works for the last 30 years - a retreat often referred to as the "Silence of Järvenpe" (where his home was located). Although he is thought to have ceased composing, he made attempts to continue writing, including an unfinished attempt at the Eighth Symphony. In later years he composed Masonic music and re-edited some of his earlier works, while maintaining an active but not always approving interest in new developments in music. Although this "silence" often confuses scholars, in fact Sibelius was clear: he felt he had created enough. His portrait appeared on Finland's 100-mark banknote until the adoption of the euro in 2002. Since 2011, Finland celebrates Flag Day on December 8 (the composer's birthday), which is also known as Finnish Music Day. In 2015, to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Sibelius's birth, a series of special concerts and events were held in Finland, especially in the capital Helsinki.
