图书简介
Anton Chekov's plays are a subversive and revolutionary force in contemporary theatre. The prevailing fashions of farces, formulaic melodramas, and vaudevilles gave way to a new form of drama that focused on the individual and their moral dilemmas. Chekov created plays without heroes and villains, and replaced the happy endings and dramatic conflicts with ambiguity and solitary quests. Though his first major play, Ivanov, met with initial bafflement, rage, and scorn, Chekov's sensitive exploration of themes like love, work, and time have proven provocative and subtle even today. He defied his audience's expectations and created a theatrical legacy that remains as exhilarating as it was unprecedented.
