Abstract

Analyzing Chekhov’s dramas reveals his spiritual connection with the problem of finding an authentic existence, a problem which has been at the centre of modern philosophic research since the beginning of the 20th century. The analysis considers, from the point of view of abstract thought, the unity of philosophy and art where formal and contextual difference allow us to see something whole, a meta-situation, a meta-language, through which an understanding of the universal human situation is achieved.
