Reading notes
- Nerves §1 the Trinity Monastery
The Trinity-Sergius Lavra, a major Russian Orthodox monastery near Moscow (Sergiyev Posad) and a standard pilgrimage/day-trip destination for Muscovite gentry -- Madame Vaksina's overnight absence there is what leaves Vaksin alone with his fears.
- Tears Invisible to the World §28 Trinity Lavra
The Trinity-Sergius Lavra near Moscow, one of Russia's holiest monasteries and a major pilgrimage site; Rebrotesov's fondly remembered fish soup there dates the story's nostalgia to nearly thirty years earlier.
- To A. S. Suvorin, 13 February 1889. Moscow. §5 Troitsa
The Trinity-Sergius Lavra, a major monastery northeast of Moscow and a common day-trip destination from the city; Chekhov proposes an excursion there with Suvorin once spring arrives.
