Abstract

The article discusses a number of prose works by Chekhov, created between 1880 and 1888, with the focus on “persons who write” and “persons who create” as important characters there, in association with nature as the center of Chekhov’s literary universe. If a “writing person” arises in his works to be dissolved in narration and storytelling, his “creative persons” instead seem to be formed there by some indefinable secret power spread in the nature

Keywords

“writing person”, “creative person”, novel, story, narrator, natural and human
