person
Yurkovsky
also: Юрковским
Named only alongside Alexei Potekhin as a colleague Chekhov apologizes to for having needlessly involved him in the now-abandoned Petersburg production plans for "Ivanov." Not otherwise identified in this letter; catalogued as a provisional identification pending further evidence. Not to be confused with the actor Fyodorov-Yurkovsky named elsewhere in this period's correspondence (e.g., \S6), who appears to be a distinct theatrical figure.

- To A. S. Suvorin, 30 December 1888. Moscow. §20 I apologize to Potekhin and Yurkovsky
NEW ENTITY -- Yurkovsky, named only alongside Potekhin as a colleague apologized to for a false alarm over the production; not otherwise identified in this letter. Catalogued as a provisional identification pending further evidence; not to be confused with the actor Fyodorov-Yurkovsky mentioned elsewhere in this period's correspondence (e.g., \S6), who appears to be a distinct theatrical figure.
- To A. S. Suvorin, 4 February 1889. Moscow. §8 Yurkovsky
Named only in passing for the photographs he is to supply; not otherwise identified in this letter. Distinct from the actor Fyodorov-Yurkovsky, whose full name is Fyodor Alexandrovich Fyodorov(-Yurkovsky) and who is a separately confirmed theatrical figure -- the two hyphenated/bare surnames should not be silently conflated.
