The Routledge Companion to Michael Chekhov brings together Chekhov
specialists from around the world - theatre practitioners,
theorists, historians and archivists - to provide an astonishingly
comprehensive assessment of his life, work and legacy. This volume
aims to connect East and West; theatre theory and practice. It
reconsiders the history of Chekhov's acting method, directing and
pedagogy, using the archival documents found across the globe: in
Russia, England, America, Germany, Lithuania and Switzerland. It
presents Chekhov's legacy and ideas in the framework of
interdisciplinary theatre practices and theories, as well as at the
crossroads of cultures, in the context of his forays into such
areas as Western mime and Asian cosmology. This remarkable
Companion, thoughtfully edited by two leading Chekhov scholars,
will prove invaluable to students and scholars of theatre, theatre
practitioners and theoreticians, and specialists in Slavic and
transcultural studies. Marie-Christine Autant-Mathieu is Director
of Research at the National Center For Scientific Research, and
Assistant-Director of Sorbonne-CNRS Institute EUR'ORBEM. She is an
historian of theatre and specialist in Russian and Soviet theatre.
Yana Meerzon is Associate Professor in the Department of Theatre,
University of Ottawa. Her book publications include Adapting
Chekhov: The Text and Its Mutations, co-edited with Professor J.
Douglas Clayton, University of Ottawa (Routlegde, 2012).
