What Does Chekhov Mean?

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was a well known Russian physician as well as a short story and play writer. He was born in Taganrog, which is placed in southern Russia. The small span of time in which he wrote plays comprised of four classical creations.

Chekhov worked as a doctor all through his literary career, and famously once said "Medicine is my lawful wife", "and Literature is my mistress". Chekhov abandoned the theatre after the devastating response of The Seagull in the year 1896, although the play was later taken up by the Konstatin Stanislavski's Moscow Art Theatre.

Anton Chekhov was born on 29th January in the year 1860, the third of the six existing children. Through out his life Chekhov asserted that he was apolitical and famously once quoted "I am not a liberal, not a conservative, not a believer in gradual progress, not a monk, not and indifferentist."
