| chekhov the major plays: The Major Plays Anton Chekhov, 2006-12-05 Anton Chekhov The Major Plays Ivanov * The Sea Gull * Uncle Vanya * The Three Sisters * The Cherry Orchard “Let the things that happen onstage be just as complex and yet just as simple as they are in life,” Chekhov once declared. “For instance, people are having a meal, just having a meal, but at the same time, their happiness is being created, or their lives are being smashed up.” So it is that his plays express life through subtle construction, everyday dialogue, and an electrically charged atmosphere in which even the most casual words and actions assume great importance in his characters’ lives. This principle sets his plays apart from the rest, steering them clear of melodrama, and draws the audience into the lives of Chekhov’s colorful characters. Because of his adherence to realism, the playwright has been called an “incomparable artist of life.”* “What makes his work great is that it can be felt and understood not only by any Russian but by anybody in the world.”—*Leo Tolstoy With a Foreword by Robert Brustein and an Afterword by Rosamund Bartlett |

| chekhov the major plays: Five major plays by Anton Chekhov Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, 1982 |
| chekhov the major plays: Five Plays Anton Chekhov, 2010-10-21 Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904) overturned the dramatic conventions of his day and laid the groundwork for contemporary approaches to directing and acting. Now, for the first time, the full lyricism, humor, and pathos of his greatest plays are available to an English-speaking audience. Marina Brodskaya's new translations of Ivanov, The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard not only surpass in accuracy all previous translations, but also provide the first complete English text of the plays, restoring passages entirely omitted by her predecessors. This much-needed volume renders Chekhov in language that will move readers and theater audiences alike, making accessible his wordplay, unstated implications, and innovations. His characters' vulnerabilities, needs, and neuroses—their humanity—emerge through their genuine, self-absorbed conversations. The plays come to life as never before and will surprise readers with their vivacity, originality, and relevance. |

| chekhov the major plays: The Chekhov Play Harvey Pitcher, 2023-04-28 In The Chekhov Play: A New Interpretation, the author sets out to reclaim Anton Chekhov's work from oversimplified, often misguided interpretations that have reduced his plays to clichés or misaligned political and literary agendas. The author critiques those who label Chekhov’s work as typically Chekhovian without truly understanding his nuanced spirit, or those who attempt to co-opt him as a revolutionary figure or a precursor to absurdist theatre. By distancing themselves from these reductive readings, the author proposes a fresh perspective, grounded in a more profound engagement with Chekhov's language, culture, and thematic subtleties. The book aims not to refute past critiques point by point but to construct an alternative framework that highlights what makes Chekhov’s plays so uniquely compelling. This effort begins with a clear and concise definition of the Chekhov play’s essence in the opening chapter, offering readers a foundational understanding that guides the subsequent exploration of his major works. The book’s analysis traces the evolution of Chekhov’s dramatic art, with detailed studies of The Seagull and Uncle Vanya illustrating the developmental trajectory of his craft. These chapters explore how Chekhov refined his dramatic language and thematic focus over time. In contrast, the discussions of Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard serve as deeper appreciations, reinterpreting these masterpieces in a way that aims to reveal new insights and emotional resonance. This dual approach—a critical examination of Chekhov’s evolution and an emotive engagement with his later works—underscores the author’s central thesis: that Chekhov’s plays are not merely artifacts of a specific time or literary movement but profound, living works that demand thoughtful and nuanced appreciation. Through this reinterpretation, the book seeks to reconnect readers with the spirit of Chekhov’s art, emphasizing its timeless humanity and depth. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology.

| chekhov the major plays: Best Plays Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, 1956 Chekhov's reputation as a founder of modern drama rests on the four plays in this volume. So revolutionary were these plays in their simplicity and naturalness of form, subject, and dialogue, that to produce them required a new school of acting, and a new Russian theatre. Immediately popular in Russia, Chekhov's plays soon were produced all over Europe. So purelyoriginal that they could not be imitated, these plays, with Isben's, laid to test the outmoded forms of European theatre, opening it to innovation in all areas. Today they are as popular as ever. -- From publisher's description. |

| chekhov the major plays: Anton Chekhov Donald Rayfield, 2013-11-07 The description 'definitive' is too easily used, but Donald Rayfield's biography of Chekhov merits it unhesitatingly. To quote no less an authority than Michael Frayn: 'With question the definitive biography of Chekhov, and likely to remain so for a very long time to come. Donald Rayfield starts with the huge advantage of much new material that was prudishly suppressed under the Soviet regime, or tactfully ignored by scholars. But his mastery of all the evidence, both old and new - a massive archive - is magisterial, his background knowledge of the period is huge; his Russian is sensitive to every colloquial nuance of the day, and his tone is sure. He captures a likeness of the notoriously elusive Chekhov which at last begins to seem recognisably human - and even more extraordinary.' Chekhov's life was short, he was only forty-four when he died, and dogged with ill-health but his plays and short stories assure him of his place in the literary pantheon. Here is a biography that does him full justice, in short, unapologetically to repeat that word 'definitive'. 'I don't remember any monograph by a Western scholar on a Russian author having such success. . . Nikita Mikhalkov said that before this book came out we didn't know Chekhov. . . The author doesn't invent, add or embellish anything . . . Rayfield is motivated by the Westerner's urge not ot hold information back, however grim it may be.' Anatoli Smelianski, Director of Moscow Arts Theatre School 'It is hard to imagine another book about Chekhov after this one by Donald Rayfield.' Arthur Miller, Sunday Times 'Donald Rayfield's exemplary biography draws on a daunting array of material inacessible or ignored by his predecessors.' Nikolai Tolstoy, The Literary Review 'Donald Rayfield, Chekhov's best and definitive biographer.' William Boyd, Guardian |
| chekhov the major plays: Freedom from Violence and Lies Michael C. Finke, 2021-12-21 An enlightening, nuanced, and accessible introduction to the life and work of one of the greatest writers of short fiction in history. Anton Chekhov’s stories and plays endure, far beyond the Russian context, as outstanding modern literary models. In a brief, remarkable life, Chekhov rose from lower-class, provincial roots to become a physician, leading writer, and philanthropist, all in the face of a progressive fatal disease. In this new biography, Michael C. Finke analyzes Chekhov’s major stories, plays, and nonfiction in the context of his life, both fleshing out the key features of Chekhov’s poetics of prose and drama and revealing key continuities across genres, as well as between his lesser-studied early writings and the later works. An excellent resource for readers new to Chekhov, this book also presents much original scholarship and is an accessible, comprehensive overview of one of the greatest modern dramatists and writers of short fiction in history. |

Lovers of Chekhov as well as those new to his work will be transfixed by Reading Chekhov. |
| chekhov the major plays: Chekhov and the Vaudeville Vera Gottlieb, 1982-08-05 This book examines the strangely neglected area of Chekhov's one-act plays, written between 1885 and 1903. Still frequently performed, they reveal many of the comic and distancing effects which are to be found in the major plays and tell us as much about Chekhov's philosophy as his use of theatre. |

| chekhov the major plays: Interpreting Chekhov Geoffrey Borny, 2006 The author's contention is that Chekhov's plays have often been misinterpreted by scholars and directors, particularly through their failure to adequately balance the comic and tragic elements inherent in these works. Through a close examination of the form and content of Chekhov's dramas, the author shows how deeply pessimistic or overly optimistic interpretations fail to sufficiently account for the rich complexity and ambiguity of these plays. The author suggests that, by accepting that Chekhov's plays are synthetic tragi-comedies which juxtapose potentially tragic sub-texts with essentially comic texts, critics and directors are more likely to produce richer and more deeply satisfying interpretations of these works. Besides being of general interest to any reader interested in understanding Chekhov's work, the book is intended to be of particular interest to students of Drama and Theatre Studies and to potential directors of these subtle plays. |

| chekhov the major plays: Stella Adler on Ibsen, Strindberg, and Chekhov Stella Adler, 1999 In her long-awaited book, the legendary acting teacher Stella Adler gives us her extraordinary insights into the work of Henrik Ibsen (The creation of the modern theater took a genius like Ibsen. . .Miller and Odets, Inge and O'Neill, Williams and Shaw, swallowed the whole of him), August Strindberg (He understood and predicted the forces that would break in our lives), and Anton Chekhov (Chekhov doesn't want a play, he wants what happens in life. In life, people don't usually kill each other. They talk). Through the plays of these masters, Adler discusses the arts of playwriting and script interpretation (There are two aspects of the theater. One belongs to the author and the other to the actor. The actor thinks it all belongs to the author. . .The curtain goes up and all he knows are the lines. . .It is not enough. . .Script interpretation is your profession). She looks into aspects of society and class, and into our cultural past, as well as the evolution of the modern spirit (The actor learns from Ibsen what is modern in the modern theater. There are no villains, no heroes. Ibsen understands, more than anything, there is more than one truth). Stella Adler--daughter of Jacob Adler, who was universally acknowledged to be the greatest actor of the Yiddish theater, and herself a disciple of Stanislavsky--examines the role of the actor and brings to life the plays from which all modern theater derives: Ibsen's Hedda Gabler, The Master Builder, An Enemy of the People, and A Doll's House; Strindberg's Miss Julie and The Father; Chekhov's The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, The Cherry Orchard, and Three Sisters (Masha is the sister who is the mystery. You cannotreach her. You cannot reach the artist. There is no logical way. Keep her in a special pocket of feelings that are complex and different). Adler discusses the ideas behind these plays and explores the world of the playwrights and the history--both familial and cultural--that informed their work. She illumines not only the dramatic essence of each play but its subtext as well, continually asking questions that deepen one's understanding of the work and of the human spirit. Adler's book, brilliantly edited by Barry Paris, puts her famous lectures into print for the first time. |
