Checking out Chekhov - Sharon Marie Carnicke - Bog

- A Guide to the Plays for Actors, Directors and Readers

Bag om Checking out Chekhov

This book paints a vivid portrait of Anton Chekhov¿a Russian writer whose elusive personality and richly detailed plays have left an indelible imprint upon the world¿s theatre. Every page reveals the joys and difficulties of his short life, his comic sensibility, deep compassion, and often puzzling use of dramatic style and genre. Carnicke demystifies Chekhov¿s plays¿forged from his literary innovations, avid theatergoing, love of vaudeville, and loathing of melodrama. She interweaves biographical and cultural information with insightful case studies and close analysis to leave her reader with a full and fresh perspective on an artist who is as foundational to theatrical traditions as are Shakespeare and Stanislavsky.
