The major problem of this study is how personality development influences the major character, Grigory Stepanovitch Smirnov, in Anthon Chekhov’s The Bear. It is aimed to analyze the drama based on individual psychological approach by Alfred Adler. The type of the study is qualitative research. There are two data sources that the researcher uses, the primary data sources and secondary data sources. The primary data source is the drama itself and the secondary data sources are any information related to study and other books which deal with the study.

INTRODUCTION CONCEIVE the joy of a lover of nature who, leaving the art galleries, wanders out among the trees and wild flowers and birds that the pictures of the galleries have sen¬ timentalised. It is some such joy that the man who truly loves the noblest in letters feels when tasting for the first time the simple delights of Russian literature. French and English and German authors, too, occasionally, offer works of lofty, simple naturalness; but the very keynote to the whole of Russian literature is simplicity, naturalness, veraciousness.

    OVID, METAMORPHOSES 10 - Theoi Classical Texts Library http://www.theoi.com/Text/OvidMetamorphoses10.html METAMORPHOSES BOOK 10, TRANSLATED BY BROOKES MORE ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE [1] Veiled in a saffron mantle, through the air unmeasured, after the strange wedding, Hymen departed swiftly for Ciconian land; regardless and not listening to the voice of tuneful Orpheus. Truly Hymen there was present during the festivities of Orpheus and Eurydice, but gave no happy omen, neither hallowed words nor joyful glances; and the torch he held would only sputter, fill the eyes with smoke, and cause no blaze while waving. The result of that sad wedding, proved more terrible than such foreboding fates. While through the grass delighted Naiads wandered with the bride, a serpent struck its venomed tooth in her soft ankle—and she died.— [11] After the bard of Rhodope had mourned, and filled the highs of heaven with the moans of his lament, determined also the dark underworld should recognize the misery of death, he dared descend by the Taenarian gate down to the gloomy Styx. And there passed through pale-glimmering phantoms, and the ghosts escaped from sepulchres, until he found Persephone and Pluto, master-king of shadow realms below: and then began to strike his tuneful lyre, to which he sang:—"O deities of this dark world beneath the earth! this shadowy underworld, to which all mortals must descend! If it can be called lawful, and if you will suffer speech of strict truth (all the winding ways of Falsity forbidden) I come not down here because of curiosity to see the glooms of Tartarus and have no thought to bind or strangle the three necks of the Medusan Monster, vile with snakes.

  • Vanya and Sonya and Mash and Spike: the Study Guide
    Vanya and Sonya and Mash and Spike: The Study Guide Meet the Playwright Christopher Durang, a playwright and actor, is a published writer who typically crafts comedies – satire, dark comedy, parody, or absurdist. The Idiots of Karamazov, co-authored with Yale classmate Albert Innaurato, was his first professional production at the Yale Repertory Theatre and featured then student Meryl Streep. Next, in 1975, his play The Nature and Purpose of the Universe was presented off-off Broadway at the Direct Theatre. A History of the American Film was a play that was produced by the Eugene O’Neill National Playwriting Conference in 1976, and then had three back-to-back productions at the Hartford Stage Company, Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, and Arena Stage in Washington D.C. Following this “triple premiere” it moved to Broadway and earned Durang a Tony nomination for Best Book of a Musical. In 1979, Durang and Sigourney Weaver rewrote Das Lusitania Songspiel, which became a cult success that satirized the work of Brecht and Weill with mishmashes of current shows. The musical garnered both Durang and Weaver Drama Desk nominations for Best Performer in a Musical. Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You was another success. Despite a rough start in raising money to move it to a commercial production, Andre Bishop re-presented the play and garnered favor from critics, moving the play to Off-Broadway for a run lasting over two years. He soon had several more plays published and performed, including Beyond Therapy (1981), Baby With The Bathwater (1983), The Marriage of Bette and Boo (1985).
