Peter Urban
Cechov-Chronik

English Title: Anton Cechov: A Chronicle

For a man who said of himself that he suffered from a disease called autobiographobia, this chronicle represents the ideal biography. A documentation of his life and works, constructed with the utmost precision and succinctness. The appendix includes an epilogue, the table of contents of Chekhov’s first Russian annotated edition and a complete bibliography of German translations.

QuotesShow all

“Peter Urban, the outstanding translator and editor of Chekhov’s work, has compiled a Chekhov chronicle which is not a biography, or perhaps the best kind of biography: a collection of many thousands of names, dates and facts.”Die Zeit

"Astonishing material: Chekhov, as he rises before us in this work, is one of the most incredible figures of Russian intellectual history."Allgemeines Sonntagsblatt
