Introducing readers to the broad socio-cultural contexts that shaped Chekhov's works and legacy, this insightful guide is rich in value for students and scholars of theater, the short story and Russian and European literature, as well as for theater practitioners and general readers wishing to deepen their engagement with Chekhov.
Premier playwright of modern theater and trailblazer of the short story, Anton Chekhov was also a practising doctor, journalist, writer of comic sketches, philanthropist and activist. This volume provides an accessible guide to Chekhov's multifarious interests and influences, with over 30 succinct chapters covering his rich intellectual milieu and his tumultuous socio-political environment, as well as the legacy of his work in over two centuries of interdisciplinary cultures and media around the world. With a Preface by Cornel West, a chronology and Further Reading list, this collection is the essential guide to Chekhov's writing and the manifold worlds he inhabited.
