figure
Lebedev
also: Лебедев
FICTIONAL CHARACTER, the genial, henpecked landowner in Chekhov's play "Ivanov", father of Sasha. Distinct from (an unrelated Oskolki illustrator) and from the real actor Konstantin Varlamov, cast here to play him.
Reading notes
- To A. S. Suvorin, 19 December 1888. Moscow. §16 Lebedev -- Varlamov.
FICTIONAL role "Lebedev" (the genial landowner, Sasha's father) matched against the REAL actor Konstantin Alexandrovich Varlamov. Not to be confused with the unrelated real (an Oskolki illustrator) elsewhere in this corpus.
- To V. N. Davydov, 4 January 1889. Moscow. §4 In my own distribution I assigned the role of Lebedev to Mr. Varlamov -- that was on your advice.
FICTIONAL-VS-REAL FLAG -- "Lebedev" here is the fictional character in Chekhov's play, a role Chekhov had provisionally assigned to the real actor Konstantin Alexandrovich Varlamov on Davydov's own earlier suggestion. The letter's business is renegotiating this assignment now that Davydov himself wants the part. Cf. the fuller Ivanov/Alexandrinsky casting correspondence in.
