Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva

Reading notes

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 31 March 1888. Moscow. §6 Anna Mikhailovna

  Pleshcheyev's wife, who together with him is organizing a second memorial collection for Garshin, distinct from Barantsevich's, which Chekhov cannot also join.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 31 March 1888. Moscow. §9 Anna Mikhailovna and Marya Dmitrievna

  Chekhov closes with regards to Pleshcheyev's family, including his wife Anna Mikhailovna and Marya Dmitrievna.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 27 August 1888. Sumy. §10 Anna Mikhailovna

  Pleshcheyev's wife, routinely sent Chekhov's regards in these letters.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 4 October 1888. Moscow. §9 Анне Михайловне

  Anna Mikhailovna here is Pleshcheyev's wife, Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva -- confirmed by the same-day follow-up letter, which names her explicitly as Pleshcheyev's wife when Chekhov says he is not afraid of her disapproval of his new story. Not to be confused with Anna Mikhailovna Yevreinova, the editor of "Severny Vestnik"; despite both being plausible candidates given the story/editorial context, the cross-check with settles the identification in favor of Pleshcheyev's wife.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 4 October 1888. Moscow. §4 Анны Михайловны

  Confirms "Anna Mikhailovna" as Pleshcheyev's wife, Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva -- this letter is a confirming source for the identification alongside letter 483, where she is introduced by name and relation, and is cross-referenced from letter 3-490's introduction. Not to be confused with any other Anna Mikhailovna elsewhere in the correspondence (e.g.).

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 17 October 1888. Moscow. §4 Please ask Anna Mikhailovna not to worry

  Anna Mikhailovna is Pleshcheyev's wife, matching the established corpus entity first introduced by name and relation in letter 483.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 10 November 1888. Moscow. §11 Anna Mikhailovna

  DISAMBIGUATION: Anna Mikhailovna here is Pleshcheyev's own wife, Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva, per the standing family-greeting formula already established in this correspondence (cf. letters 2-400, 2-483, 3-490, 3-491) -- confirmed by context, as this occurrence is paired with greetings to "all your family" and carries no editorial business. This name recurs ambiguously across the corpus: a SEPARATE "Anna Mikhailovna" -- Anna Mikhailovna Yevreinova, the jurist and editor-publisher of "Severny Vestnik" -- appears under the same first name and patronymic in letters 3-490 and 3-494 (and is discussed there in an editorial, not familial, context).

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 30 December 1888. Moscow. §12 My respects and every good wish to Anna Mikhailovna and Maria Dmitrievna

  DISAMBIGUATION: Anna Mikhailovna here is Pleshcheyev's own wife, Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva, per the standing family-greeting formula already established in this correspondence (cf. letters 2-400, 2-483, 3-490, 3-491, 3-528) -- confirmed by context, paired here with a purely familial closing greeting alongside Maria Dmitrievna and carrying no editorial business. This name recurs ambiguously across the corpus: a SEPARATE "Anna Mikhailovna" -- Anna Mikhailovna Yevreinova, the jurist and publisher/editor-in-chief of "Severny Vestnik" -- appears under the same first name and patronymic in letters 3-490, 3-494, and 3-531 (discussed there in an editorial, not familial, context).

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 9 April 1889. Moscow. §14 Anna Mikhailovna

  Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva, wife of the addressee Alexei Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev; already established in this corpus at, where Chekhov also sends her his regards. The translator's report flagged this mention as unresolved/provisional, but a search of entities.json found this pre-existing entity is a strong, corpus-consistent match (a Pleshcheyev household member addressed among personal family regards, exactly as anticipated) -- reused here rather than left unlinked.

• To A. N. Pleshcheyev, 14 May 1889. Sumy. §12 and to Anna Mikhailovna.

  Anna Mikhailovna Pleshcheyeva, wife of the addressee Alexei Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev; established in this corpus at and reused at \S14 (five weeks earlier, to the same addressee). Distinct from Anna Mikhailovna Yevreinova, editor of "Severny Vestnik," who has no connection to Pleshcheyev; the two "Anna Mikhailovna"s must not be conflated.
