The Little Trilogy

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904) was a Russian playwright and short-story writer, widely regarded as one of the greatest literary figures of all time. Born in Taganrog, he initially studied medicine at Moscow University, and his medical background often influenced his writing, giving him a unique perspective on human condition and psychology. Chekhov gained fame through his short stories, which are known for their brevity, depth of character development, and underlying themes of human despair and hope. His plays, including "The Seagull," "Uncle Vanya," "Three Sisters," and "The Cherry Orchard," revolutionized modern drama with their subtle psychological realism and focus on the internal lives of characters. Chekhov's work has left a profound impact on literature and theatre, blending humor with tragedy and exploring the mundane to reveal deeper philosophical questions. He died of tuberculosis at the age of 44, leaving behind a legacy that continues to influence writers and playwrights globally.

Constance Clara Garnett (1861-1946) was a British translator who played a pivotal role in introducing Russian literature to the English-speaking world. Born in Brighton, England, Garnett learned Russian in her 20s and began translating Russian works in the late 19th century. She is most celebrated for her translations of the works of Anton Chekhov, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Leo Tolstoy, and Ivan Turgenev, among others.
