1901年,瑞典皇家学院毫无争议地将第一个诺贝尔和平奖颁发给了瑞士银行家亨利·杜南。1859年6月24日,杜南为了一个跨国银行业的生意途经意大利北部小镇索尔弗利诺,正赶上法国、撒丁国联军与奥地利军之间的一场恶战。战场上死伤者达4万多人,无助的伤兵在烈日下痛苦挣扎。杜南毅然放弃了去谈生意的计划,带领随行人员并组织居民抢救伤兵、掩埋尸体。 In 1901, the Royal Swedish Academy awarded the first Nobel Peace Prize to the Swiss banker Henry Dunant without question. On June 24, 1859, Dunant, for the sake of a multinational banking business, traveled through Solferino, a small town in northern Italy, to catch up with a fierce battle between France, the Sardinian coalition forces and the Austrian army. The casualties on the battlefield reached more than 40,000, helpless wounded soldiers struggling in the hot sun. Dunant decided to give up the plan to talk about business, led the accompanying staff and organize residents to rescue the wounded and buried the body.
