Summary
The Impressionist quality of Chekhov’s writing, recognized from the beginning, is in this work tested against the specific features of Impressionist art. The work’s historical perspective elucidates the decisive impact of the era on the Impressionists and on Chekhov: both focused on the modern, constantly changing world. Extensive analysis of Chekhov’s text and Impressionist paintings is the basis for defining specific parallels in their thematic, stylistic, and ideological aspects.
