Redwood∗ I. INTRODUCTION Like any other great writer, Anton Chekhov dealt with some of the most pressing and poignant themes of human existence from which the lawyer, for all his learning and training, is not immune—love, loss, pain, joy, suffering, victory, sorrow, and death.1 We know that from Chekhov’s humble beginnings on the Sea of Azov,2 this son of a grocer from Taganrog3 went on to be- ∗ © 2009, James D.

The Author would like to thank his colleague, Maria Grahn-Farley, his research assistant, Nate Kupferman, and his legal assistant, Theresa Colbert, for their invaluable help in completing this project. 1. Vladimir Kataev, If Only We Could Know! An Interpretation of Chekhov 162 (Har- vey Pitcher ed. & trans., Ivan R. Dee 2002). 2. D.S. Mirsky, Chekhov, in Anton Chekhov’s Short Stories 291 (Ralph E. Matlaw, ed., W.W. Norton & Co. 1979). Prince Mirsky, who wrote a highly opinionated history of Rus- sian literature in 1926, treated Chekhov none too kindly: But Gorky, Kuprin, and Bunin, to name but the foremost of those who regarded him as their master, can hardly be recognized as his pupils. Certainly no one learned from him the art of constructing his stories. Russian fiction is quite free from any trance [sic] of Chekhov’s influence. In Russia, Chekhov has become a thing of the past—of a past remoter than even Turgenev, not to speak of Gogol or Leskov. Id. at 300–301. Mirsky could not have been more purblind had he tried to be. It is Chekhov who has survived, at least to Western readers, over the likes of Nikolai Leskov or Alexan- der Kuprin. So why Mirsky’s breezy dismissal of Chekhov as a second-rate author? Per- haps the prince was simply exhibiting the prejudices of his aristocratic upbringing, or had he begun to pander to the yen for “socialist realism” which rendered Stalinist fiction so dreadfully orthodox and prosaic in very short order after 1924? At all events, it is clearly Mirsky and not Chekhov who is today in need of exhumation. 3. Robert Payne, The Image of Chekhov xvii (Alfred A. Knopf 1979).

This Chekhov-approved edition appeared in ten volumes between 1899 and 1902. Anton Chekhov, The Undiscovered Chekhov: Forty-Three New Stories xvii (Peter Constan- tine trans., Seven Stories Press 1998) [hereinafter Constantine]. The thirteen-volume edition translated by Constance Garnett and first published between 1916 and 1922 re- mains the most compendious collection in English of the stories of Chekhov. This edition was reissued by The Ecco Press beginning in 1984. Anton Chekhov, The Tales of Chekhov: The Darling & Other Stories vol. 1 (Constance Garnett trans., The Ecco Press 1984). Al- though not considered faultless, Garnett’s translations are still the benchmark by which other translations are measured, even those that are considered superior, such as Ronald Hingley’s collection in The Oxford Chekhov, vols. 1–9 (Ronald Hingley trans., Oxford U. Press 1964–1980). See e.g. Simon Karlinsky, Anton Chekhov’s Life and Thought: Selected Letters and Commentary ix (Simon Karlinsky ed., Simon Karlinsky & Michael Henry Heim trans., U. Cal. Press 1973) (commenting on Constance Garnett’s talent as a translator in spite of her occasional misreading). A Russian edition of Chekhov’s works published before 1922 contained, in addition to the 240 stories which the author himself approved, 196 other pieces of short fiction. Constance Garnett, Translator’s Note, in Anton Chekhov, The Tales of Chekhov: Love & Other Stories vol. 13 (Constance Garnett trans., The Ecco Press 1987). A systematic Russian edition appeared in 1929, and then an authoritative critical edition was published in Moscow between 1944 and 1951. Id. at 306. By 1886, as Chekhov was turning from comic to serious writing, he had already published “over four hundred short stories and vignettes in popular magazines, as well as two books of stories, with a third in the making.” Constantine, supra n. 4, at ix. 5. Mention The Seagull, Uncle Vania, The Three Sisters, or The Cherry Orchard, and anyone with a pretension to culture would blush to show his or her ignorance. Or at least such would be the assumption of anyone who, like this Author, grew up in the pre-post- literate world. 6. See infra Part II (providing a background and assessment of Chekhov’s life). 7. It is refreshing to point out Chekhov’s remark that “[t]he only difference between doctors and lawyers is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you, too.” BBC World Service, Learning English—Moving Words, http://www.bbc.co.uk/ worldservice/learningenglish/movingwords/quotefeature/chekhov.shtml (accessed July 11, 2009). Well, perhaps “refreshing” is not the right word, but it is gratifying nonetheless, given the greater esteem in which doctors are usually held compared to lawyers. 8. This is not the time or place to tender a discussion of Chekhov’s view of the rela- tionship between the medical and legal professions. Suffice it to say that the present Arti- cle is part of a larger project on the significance of Chekhov’s stories to the legal profession, and that a later piece of the project may well pick up the theme here dropped somewhat File: Redwood.391.GALLEY(h).doc Created on: 3/22/2010 10:28:00 AM Last Printed: 4/19/2010 2:11:00 PM 2009] Anton Chekhov’s Home and A Visit to Friends 49 personal and the professional aspects of life.9 After all, the lawyer as lawyer is doppelganger to the lawyer as mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter, friend, or lover. Notwithstanding Rudyard Kipling’s adjuration that “never the twain shall meet,”10 it is per- haps more accurate to say that “never the twain shall part.” The lawyer can no more separate personal considerations from his professional life than can anyone else. Nor, this Article maintains, is it possible for the attorney to divorce her professional concerns from her personal life. In the two stories to be discussed, Home and A Visit to Friends, Chekhov gives us two lawyers who, without being con- sciously aware of it, struggle to accommodate their personal and professional lives, but who do so in intriguingly opposite ways. In Home, the lawyer reconciles his two opposing selves by shifting from the impersonal and the professional to the personal and emotional through a process of “subjectification.” In A Visit to Friends, on the other hand, the attorney harmonizes the two sides of his character by shedding his subjectified younger self and be- coming more detached, objective, and “professional” as he grows older. Chekhov offers up the story of these two attorneys trying to reconcile the two aspects of their lives without choosing between them,11 and he does so in an uncritical12 manner that surely reso- abruptly, namely the connection between doctors and lawyers. 9. A good example of what this Author means by the phrase “the dilemma of the professions,” which Chekhov poses without solving, can be found in James Fenimore Coo- per’s The Pioneers, where Judge Marmaduke Temple must attempt to render justice to the lawbreaker, Natty Bumppo, who has just saved the judge’s daughter’s life. James Feni- more Cooper, The Pioneers 275–286 (Lightyear Press 1984). Judge Temple struggles with indifferent success to set aside his personal feelings while trying Bumppo for shooting a deer out of season, resisting a search warrant, and assaulting an officer of the law. Id. at 275–286. 10. See Rudyard Kipling, The Ballad of East and West, in The Works of Kipling 3 (The Macmillan Co. 1898) (“Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, / Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God’s great Judgment Seat; / But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, / When two strong men stand face to face, tho’ they come from the ends of the earth!”). 11. One of the most modern and lasting traits of Chekhov’s fiction is that the author poses problems without purporting to solve them.

    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • Rebellion Brothers Karamazov
    Book V, Chapter IV. Rebellion from The Brothers Karamazov (Fyodor Dostoyevsky) Trans: Constance Garnett Project Gutenber Edition “I must make you one confession,” Ivan began. “I could never understand how one can love one's neighbors. It's just one's neighbors, to my mind, that one can't love, though one might love those at a distance. I once read somewhere of John the Merciful, a saint, that when a hungry, frozen beggar came to him, he took him into his bed, held him in his arms, and began breathing into his mouth, which was putrid and loathsome from some awful disease. I am convinced that he did that from ‘self-laceration,’ from the self-laceration of falsity, for the sake of the charity imposed by duty, as a penance laid on him. For any one to love a man, he must be hidden, for as soon as he shows his face, love is gone.” “Father Zossima has talked of that more than once,” observed Alyosha; “he, too, said that the face of a man often hinders many people not practiced in love, from loving him. But yet there's a great deal of love in mankind, and almost Christ-like love. I know that myself, Ivan.” “Well, I know nothing of it so far, and can't understand it, and the innumerable mass of mankind are with me there. The question is, whether that's due to men's bad qualities or whether it's inherent in their nature. To my thinking, Christ-like love for men is a miracle impossible on earth.

Yet Gilyak; Russian Empire Chekhov’s chronicle of Sakhalin Island in the Russian Far East parallels in important ways Mansfield’s near-contemporaneous account of colonial life in New Zealand. Both writers are con- cerned with a specific variant of the colonial situation: settler colonialism, which prioritizes appropriation of land over the gov- ernance of peoples. This article considers the aesthetic strategies each writer develops for capturing that milieu within the frame- work of the settler colonial aesthetics that has guided much anthropological engagement with endangered peoples.

  • O MAGIC LAKE Чайкаthe ENVIRONMENT of the SEAGULL the DACHA Дать Dat to Give
    “Twilight Moon” by Isaak Levitan, 1898 O MAGIC LAKE чайкаTHE ENVIRONMENT OF THE SEAGULL THE DACHA дать dat to give DEFINITION датьA seasonal or year-round home in “Russian Dacha or Summer House” by Karl Ivanovich Russia. Ranging from shacks to cottages Kollman,1834 to villas, dachas have reflected changes in property ownership throughout Russian history. In 1894, the year Chekhov wrote The Seagull, dachas were more commonly owned by the “new rich” than ever before. The characters in The Seagull more likely represent the class of the intelligencia: artists, authors, and actors. FUN FACTS Dachas have strong connections with nature, bringing farming and gardening to city folk. A higher class Russian vacation home or estate was called a Usad’ba. Dachas were often associated with adultery and debauchery. 1 HISTORYистория & ARCHITECTURE история istoria history дать HISTORY The term “dacha” originally referred to “The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia” by the land given to civil servants and war Alphonse Mucha heroes by the tsar. In 1861, Tsar Alexander II abolished serfdom in Russia, and the middle class was able to purchase dwellings built on dachas. These people were called dachniki. Chekhov ridiculed dashniki. ARCHITECTURE Neoclassicism represented intelligence An example of 19th century and culture, so aristocrats of this time neoclassical architecture attempted to reflect this in their architecture. Features of neoclassical architecture include geometric forms, simplicity in structure, grand scales, dramatic use of Greek columns, Roman details, and French windows. Sorin’s estate includes French windows, and likely other elements of neoclassical style.
