137 Appendix a the Summary of May Sinclair's the Three 137 APPENDIX A THE SUMMARY OF MAY SINCLAIR'S THE THREE SISTERS The story begins with the Cataret's family early stays in the village of Garthdale. The vicar family just moved in five months ago from London. The family moving from a big city to a small village of Garthdale is in the purpose of cure treatment for their younger member of family, Alice Cataret. In her twenty three years old age, she gets pneumonia and anemia, she need fresh air environment to keep her health. The village seem bored for her, nobody knows what Mary Cataret, the oldest sister, feels about it, but it is amusing for the number two sister' Gwendolen Cataret, or they calls her Gwenda. She is twenty five years old, two years younger than the number one sister. In her appearance she looks different compared with her other two sisters, she is tallest and darkest than her sisters, she also the only one who has dark blue eyes, in the family, they are all grey. The differences in the way she looks like also emphasized the impression the writer want to put on Gwenda as the strongest, independent, and intelligent among the sisters. Unlike the other two sisters, Gwenda loves the place, she loves the village's nature, she likes to walk over the moors, to see the sheep or the moon wakes up from Garthdale. Gwenda has the taste and sense for nature, and outdoor sport activity, while the other two sisters not. Mary prefers the womanly activity for her leisure time, such as sewing. Alice or Ally, the younger one, she is the weakest among the other two, prefer to day dreaming all day, sitting on a coach and seeing 137 138 her white hands, but sometimes she plays piano to reduce the anxiety feeling in her mood. The first five chapter of the story tells about the background and physical description of the main protagonists. Until on a day, when the three sisters sit in their drawing room, Mary sews, Gwenda reads, and Ally day dreams. Their father, Mr. James Cataret, upstairs in his office. All of them in the house hear the clanking hoof of Dr. Steven Rowcliffe's horse, they all know he is going to visit old Greatorex who is dying of pneumonia, some days later he is death, he left his only son John Greatorex, whom later has saved Alice's life by marrying her. However, at the sound of Dr. Rowcliffe's carriage, the three sisters have made up their own mind thinking about this young doctor. The three of them gets crush on him. He just moves in from Leeds to the near village of Morfe. He is about thirty-five years old, young, handsome, empathic, and a doctor with good capability. Many women around him gets attract to him, but he has seen Gwenda, and in love with her since his first meeting with her, when she walks over the moor of Karva on his ways back home on his carriage. And there are many other times he sees her, but he feels she even does not consider about his existence, she seems to be absorbed on herself and her activity. Until one day, Gwenda goes to his house to invite him to make an examination on her younger sister, Alice. However, before Gwenda, Mary has visited Dr. Rowcliffe without her knowing about her sister going, Mary also has set her eye on Dr. Rowcliffe. Furthermore, since their first meeting in Dr. Rowcliffe's house, Gwenda and him starts a close relationship. Mr. James Cataret, the father knows about it 139 and he feels not happy about it. He is afraid, afraid of Gwenda, the only daughter who gives her the most trouble. She is smart and strong, capable to do anything is his term for her. The thinking of Gwenda marries the young doctor, has frighten him. If she marries him, he will keep her straight, that the frighten thing Mr. Cataret wants to avoid. Therefore, he makes up a plan, he tells his younger daughter about the love relationship, he knows that Alice falls in love with the young doctor; he also knows what will happen next if Alice finds out about Gwenda and Steven Rowcliffe relationship, he knows the effect. And it does as he predicts before, soon as Alice sees herself that Rowcliffe and Gwenda walk together over the moors, she gets ill, the hard one than before. The next day, Dr. Rowcliffe comes to the house and examines her; he diagnoses a hysteria case of neurotic anxiety. From Dr. Rowcliffe, Gwenda knows about Alice dying, that she will go mad or die if not marries. Dr. Rowcliffe does not know about Alice's infatuation on him, but Gwenda knows, therefore she decides to leave her lover for her dying sister, to save her life. Gwenda is going to London, Dr. Rowcliffe never knows the real reason why Gwenda leaves him and refuses his marriage proposal, the only thing he knows that for a woman like Gwenda, liberty is the most important thing above everything she should have in the world, as she says it her self, some couple time ago. While Gwenda in London, Mary chase after the young doctor who is trapped into her sensual femininity, the type of women that men idealized, as Mary has think on her plan, and she has him. Mary gets Dr. Steven Rowcliffe in her sweetness and goodness. 140 Somehow, Alice realizes that Gwenda's going to London to stay with Mummy is because of her. Therefore, she repressed the infatuation desire to Dr. Rowcliffe, and prefers to marry a rough drunken landfarmer man, John Greatorex. The father, Mr. James Cataret, gets heart attack at the hearing the news, it happens after Mary's marriage with Dr. Rowcliffe. Gwenda has betrayed by her lover, sisters, and uselessly sacrifice her love for her dying sister. Gwenda stays back in the house to take care her dependent half paralyzed father. She used to be the one who give most trouble, but she proves to be the devotional one to her father. As his father thought, he never knows what might Gwenda does, but she capable to do anything she wants to. She lives with the dependent father in monotonous daily routines, in the village she used to love, but now she is afraid of, because it shares her fear as she beaten, naked, blackened by the stormy tragic things occurs in her life. Further, there is a time in the first year of his marriage with Mary, Dr. Steven Rowcliffe plays as cruel husband to her. In other side, he shows his love for Gwenda by chasing after her. But Gwenda strong-willed-self refuses the temptation, instead she becomes a furious reader, channeling her energy of the passion for life. 141 APPENDIX B I. Life account of May Sinclair May Sinclair was the pseudonym of Mary Amelia St. Clair (1862 - 1946), a popular British writer. She was known for two dozen novels, short stories and poetry. She was an active suffragist, and member of the Woman Writers' Suffrage League. She was also a significant critic, in the area of modernist poetry and prose; the term stream of consciousness, in its literary sense, is attributed to her. She was born in Rock Ferry, Cheshire. Her father was a Liverpool ship owner, who went bankrupt, became an alcoholic, and died before she was an adult. Her mother was strict and religious; the family moved to Ilford on the edge of London. After one year of education at Cheltenham Ladies College, she acted as care giver for her brothers (four of five, all older and all suffering from a fatal congenital heart disease). From 1896 she wrote professionally, to support herself and her mother, who died in 1901. She treated a number of themes relating to the position of women, and marriage. She also wrote non-fiction based on studies of philosophy, particularly German idealism. Her works sold well in the United States. Around 1913, at the Medico-Psychological Clinic in London, she became interested in psychoanalytic thought, and introduced matter related to Sigmund Freud's teaching in her novels. In 1914 she volunteered for ambulance duty in Belgium, at the start of World War I. She was able to endure only a few weeks at the front; she wrote about the experience in both prose and poetry. She wrote early criticism on Imagism and the poet H. D. (1915 in The Egoist); she was on social 142 terms with H. D., Richard Aldington and Ezra Pound at the time. She reviewed positively also the poetry of T. S. Eliot (1917 in the Little Review) and the fiction of Dorothy Richardson (1918 in The Egoist). It was in connection with Richardson that she introduced 'stream of consciousness' as a literary term, which was very generally adopted. Some aspects of Sinclair's subsequent novels have been traced as influenced by modernist techniques, particularly in the autobiographical Mary Olivier: A Life (1919). She was included in the 1925 Contact Collection of Contemporary Writers. She was a member of the Society for Psychical Research from 1914. Some supernatural fiction devices appear in her shorter fiction. From the late 1920s she was suffering from the early signs of Parkinson's disease, and ceased writing. She settled with a companion in Buckinghamshire in 1932, and died on 1946. II.

It is designed to highlight the harmonies between the texts, their musical four-act structure, and Chekov's evolution over his writing career. All four scripts are performed at once; moments and lines that are horizontally aligned are very roughly simultaneous. All text is taken from public domain translations of the plays. The actor playing the DOCTOR is the same across all four plays. Same true for SERVANT. Other actors may or may not double, depending on the director's wishes. [Lights up.

  • Book 34.2 April 24.Indb
    Gabrielle Roy and Chekhov’s “Strange Alchemy” Darlene Kelly St. Th omas More College, University of Saskatchewan Gabrielle Roy, French Canada’s grande dame of letters, won France’s prestigious Prix 189 Fémina for her novel Bonheur d’occasion (1945) and numerous awards at home, par- ticularly Quebec. By a strange twist of literary genealogy, however, she proved to be less inspired by the great French authors of Canada and France than she was by a Russian playwright and short-story writer who had died before she was born. Th e cosmopolitan Roy was open about her mentor: asked which literary work had most infl uenced her, she promptly identifi ed it as Anton Chekhov’s novella Th e Steppe, a story whose “charme secret” from childhood on had changed the way she perceived the world: “Longtemps, longtemps, cette lointaine lecture a pénétré mes pensées, m’a façonné, si je puis dire, une manière de voir, de regarder et de saisir le réel” (Roman canadien-français 303) (“For a long, long time this reading from my distant past had occupied my thoughts, had fashioned, if I may so put it, a way of seeing, of looking at and grasping what was real”).1 She later expressed confusion about just when this fashioning of her perceptions began. A Chekhovian motif that a critic had noted in her fi ction, for example, had its origins not in literature, she argued, but in certain expe- riences that predated her reading of the great Russian author. Her earlier statement that she had read Chekhov in childhood was now declared wrong.

  • Week I. Chekhov on His Play
    Unfortunately, Chekhov’s innovations were well received by neither directors nor theatergoers. Nor did they receive proper treatment from critics. Chekhov always insisted that he created cheerful, funny short stories and dramas, while critics labeled him a creator of dismal works: “Chekhov’s play makes a hard, if not to say, oppressive impression on the audience” (Sochineniia 13: 449; trans. John Holman); “Three Sisters appears to be a heavy stone on one’s soul” (13: 449; trans. John Holman); “I do not know another work that could ‘infect’ one with such a heavy, obsessive feeling” (13: 449; trans. John Holman). That Chekhov intended his work to be seen as a farce has not yet received a comprehensive evaluation. His first comedy, The Seagull, failed. And no wonder! Spectators who anticipated vaudevillian scenes became extremely angry with the dramatist for misleading them with the subtitle and for representing, instead, a depressing story that ends with the suicide of a main protagonist. The same fate had befallen The Cherry Orchard, a play that was planned to be a farce (as reflected in Chekhov’s letters to his wife, Olga Knipper). In 1901, he wrote to her: “The next play that I am going to write will definitely be funny, at least by its concept” (Sochineniia 13: 478). Critics accused Chekhov of lacking skill; they naturally did not see anything funny about the distressing plays that Chekhov called comedies. But what happened to Three Sisters was even worse. A struggle for the CNT: conservators and innovators. Just as any other innovator, Chekhov suffered for his pioneering changes of the comedic genre, which he unfortunately never discussed in a more logistical way.

  • The Problem of Stupidity in Chekhov's Three Sisters
    [Expositions 5.1 (2011) 14-29] Expositions (online) ISSN: 1747-5376 The Problem of Stupidity in Chekhov’s Three Sisters LEE TREPANIER Saginaw Valley State University One of the continual challenges that confront critics of Chekhov‟s Three Sisters is to locate a theme that unites the various elements in the play. The initial reaction to its first performances was one of puzzlement as to why the sisters did not go to Moscow: they were wealthy, privileged, and had no familial obstacles to prevent them from the journey.1 It also was interpreted by early reviewers as either allegorical, since the play seemed to lack action, or as a satire of weak-willed characters. Later, other critics, like A. V. Lunacharskky, found it unbearably morose in that Chekhov had failed to present a positive forceful hero who could “show us the seeds of a new life.”2 By contrast, Kornei Chukovsky believed that Chekhov‟s attempt to find beauty in the ordinariness of life demonstrated the value of the Christian virtues, for “it not only evokes sympathy for the downtrodden and suffering but make them an image of beauty.”3 Finally, these were Russian commentators like Vladimir Mayakovsky who wrote that there were two Chekhovs in the play: the first was about the twilight of Russian aristocratic society; the second was a call to the future for a spiritual renewal of Russian civilization.4 In the West the criticism of Three Sisters has run the gamut of admiration of Chekhov‟s realist portrayal of life, psychological insights of its characters, and anticipation of theater of the absurd to a dismissal of the play as being outdated, dull, and pointless.5 Most western critics also have reiterated Mayakovsky‟s idea of the “two Chekhovs” – Chekhov‟s hope for the future and despair of the present – as the theme that unites the play.

But not flashy, philosophical ennui. Open Preview See a Problem? His works have a certain freshness that transcends the period. That said I find the theme of provincial Russian boredom and backwardness a bit tedious especially in a big chunk. But it's fun to see what the translator has attempted. This volume simply enlarges that desire. This pretty much completes my inquiry into Chekhov; I will, of course, go back to reread his plays and stories and give The Three Sisters a second chance. But from there it goes in all kinds of unusual directions. His plays are so delicate, that you just know you're losing something due to the translations. And that, in my opinion, is the problem with Senelick. Chekhov wasn't a solidly middle-class Edwardian Englishman reflecting on a world I don't think that this translation is the one that I was familiar with and can't recommend any one translation in particular. With a heavy head and a sluggish mind, weary, used up, discouraged, without faith or love or an object in life, I wander like a shadow among other men, not knowing why I am alive or what it is that I want.

  • The Prison Worlds of Dostoevskii, Tolstoi, and Chekhov
    The Prison Worlds of Dostoevskii, Tolstoi, and Chekhov Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gregory Ormiston, M.A. Graduate Program in Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Alexander Burry, Advisor Angela Brintlinger Helena Goscilo Copyrighted by Gregory Ormiston 2017 Abstract It may be unsurprising that in nineteenth-century Russia, under a politically sensitive tsarist regime notorious for sending some of the country’s most famous writers into exile, prison became a conspicuous topic in literature. In the second half of the century, the works of three of Russia’s best realist authors - Fedor Dostoevskii, Lev Tolstoi, and Anton Chekhov – prominently featured prison, and even prisoners as heroes. Nevertheless, critical treatment of these prison-related works tends to isolate them to the context of each individual writer. This dissertation explores the carceral connections between these authors to see how prison, as a common theme, played a larger role in the development of nineteenth-century Russian literature than has previously been recognized. My study focuses especially on how prison influences the creation of the three authors’ literary worlds. Specifically, through close reading and analysis of selected texts, I show how the realists use the time and space of prison to produce the themes and forms of their fiction. Thus prison becomes foundational in the works of Dostoevskii and Chekhov, and revelatory in Tolstoi’s late period. Theoretical support for this analysis comes mainly from Mikhail Bakhtin, whose notion of the “chronotope” aids in the investigation of prison-like settings, and Michel Foucault, who tracks the changing nature of prison and its increasing effect on society leading into the era of the Russian realists.

Lect. Muhannad Ajel who contributed a lot in the fulfillment of this paper with his advice, help, continual support and encouragement. iii Abstract Writing at the turning point of the century pushes any writer to face and reflect the changes of this critical period. Chekhov comprehends this challenge; therefore, it becomes a recurrent theme that appears in most of his works which is a valuable resistance and survival against the social and economic changes that happened clearly in the modern age which have a great impact on man's life and psych. This leads Chekhov to endeavor, portraying the image of Utopia in most of his works, including The Three Sisters For that reason, this paper is divided into two chapters. Chapter one deals with Anton Chehov’s life and career, while chapter scrutinizes the image of Utopia in his masterpiece, The Three Sisters. Finally the conclusion sums up the findings of the study. iv Contents Dedication ii Acknowledgements iii Abstract iv Contents v Chapter One 1.1 Anton Chekhov’s Life and Career 1 Notes 5 Chapter Two: The Image of Utopia in Anton Chekhov's Three Sisters 6 Notes 21 Conclusion 23 Bibliography 25 Chapter One: Anton's Chekhov's Life and Career Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born on January 17, 1860, in Taganrog, a provincial Russian town on the Sea of Azov.
