Autorenporträt
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904) is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest short story writers in the history of literature. Born in Taganrog, Russia, Chekhov was the third of six children. He embarked on a career in medicine, a field that he would parallel with his literary pursuits. Chekhov ushered a new era of modern storytelling, focusing on character development and mood rather than plot-driven narratives. His writing style is characterized by a subtle exploration of human psychology, understatement, and an emphasis on internal drama. His medical background instilled in him a clinical attention to detail, which served his short fiction's precision and depth. 'The Horse-Stealers and Other Stories' is a collection that exemplifies Chekhov's mastery of the form, encapsulating his nuanced examination of Russian society, individual existence, and the human condition. Chekhov's influence extends beyond literature into theatre through his major plays, such as 'The Seagull', 'Uncle Vanya', 'Three Sisters', and 'The Cherry Orchard'. His narrative techniques prefigured the modernist era and have had a lasting impact on both Russian and global literature, with his works translating across linguistic and cultural borders and his methods paving the way for future literary developments.
