viii. Literary Studies and Criticism There exists a very large bibliography, articles and books, of scholarly investigations and critical appreciations on all aspects of Chekhov's creative art in fiction and drama. Often a single story or play has been repeatedly studied from different points of view. This material has necessarily played a minor part in the preparation of the present biography, but the listing of a few titles that have been helpful seems desirable.
