Jan. 17, 1860 (Jan. 29, New Style); d. July 1/2, 1904 (July 14/15, New Style) Russian playwright and one of the great masters of modern short story. In his work Chekhov combined the dispassionate attitude of a scientist and doctor with the sensitivity and psychological understanding of an artist. Chekhov portrayed often life in the Russian small towns, where tragic events occur in a minor key, as a part of everyday texture of life. His characters are passive by-standers in regard to their lives, filled with the feeling of hopelessness and the fruitlessness of all efforts. "What difference does it make?" says Chebutykin in Three Sisters "There is not, or there hardly is, a single Russian gentleman or university man who does not boast of his past. The present is always worse than the past. Why? Because Russian excitability has one specific characteristic: it is quickly followed by exhaustion" (from Letters on the Short Story, the Drama and other Literary Topics

Encyclopedia Index CHEKHOV, ANTON PAVLOVICH Chekhov's first large collection, Motley Stories (1886), brought him critical respect; it was followed by the collections At Twilight (1887) and Stories An active humanitarian, Chekhov wrote The Island of Sakhalin (1890), a study of convicts' lives that helped to effect social reform; as a physician he fought two cholera epidemics. He wrote several farces related to his early stories, but his first major staged drama was Ivanov (1887). His success as a dramatist was assured when the Moscow Art Theater took his works and built superb productions, beginning with The Seagull in 1898. They followed this with his masterpieces Uncle Vanya The Three Sisters (1901), and The Cherry Orchard (1904), his last great work. Among the finest works of Chekhov's later years are his hundreds of letters to notable contemporaries. For the final three years of his life Chekhov was happily married to Olga Knipper, an actress with the Moscow Art company. Although they were often separated, they were together at a German health resort when he died, at 44. Most of Chekhov's works are available in English. Several lesser-known works appear in Avrahm Yarmolinsky's The Unknown Chekhov (1954) and 38 previously untranslated stories were published in The Undiscovered Chekhov Bibliography Top Search the Library

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born in Taganrog, Russia, on January 29, 1860, the son of a grocer. After his father fled Taganrog in 1875 because of bankruptcy, his family was kicked out of their house. In 1879, Chekhov rejoined his family in Moscow, where he enrolled at the University to study medicine. To supplement the meager income provided by his medical practice, Chekhov began contributing humorous articles to minor magazines under the pen name of Antosha Chekhonte in 1880. By 1882, he was a regular contributor of short stories and sketches to the St. Petersburg humorous journal Oskolki ; he also wrote a regular column on Moscow life. By 1886, he had become known as a writer and decided to devote himself full time to pursuing a literary career. Chekhov's stories concentrate on average men and women who cannot seem to understand each other and become lonely. His best-known stories include: The Steppe (1888) [won the Pushkin Prize] The Party The Duel Ward No. 6

ANTON CHEKHOV (1860-1904) Born on January 29, 1860, in Taganrog, Russia, on the Sea of Azov, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov would eventually become one of Russia's most cherished storytellers. Especially fond of vaudevilles and French farces, he produced some hilarious one-acts, but it is his full-length tragedies that have secured him a place among the greatest dramatists of all time. Chekhov began writing short stories during his days as a medical student at the University of Moscow. After graduating in 1884 with a degree in medicine, he began to freelance as a journalist and writer of comic sketches. Early in his career, he mastered the form of the one-act and produced several masterpieces of this genre including The Bear (1888) in which a creditor hounds a young widow, but becomes so impressed when she agrees to fight a duel with him, that he proposes marriage, and The Wedding (1889) in which a bridegroom's plans to have a general attend his wedding ceremony backfire when the general turns out to be a retired naval captain "of the second rank". Ivanov (1887), Chekhov's first full-length play, a fairly immature work compared to his later plays, examines the suicide of a young man very similar to Chekhov himself in many ways. His next play

End Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was a Russian physician and writer of short stories and plays. As Chekhov wrote to a friend, "Medicine is my lawful wife, and literature is my mistress.

Anton Chekhov Birth: Anton Pavlovic Chekhov was born in Taganron, Ukraine. He had four brothers: Ivan, Nikolai, Alexander, and Mikhail; and one sister: Maria. His father was a grocer, and his grandfather was a serf, who bought his freedom in 1841. According to biographer Henri Troyat, Chekhov once said, "When I was a child, I had not childhood." Anton Chekhov Death: On July 2, 1904, Anton Chekhov died. He had suffered from tuberculosis for many years, and had been forced to spend most of his time in warmer climates, which had separated him Olga later wrote about the silence: "There were no human voices, no everyday sounds... There was only beauty, peace, and the grandeur of death." It seems almost appropriate that a man who gave the world so many words should end his days with a glass of champagne and silence.
