Anton Chekhov's The Proposal - Review -

by itamitum

There are three characters in this play, they are; Ivan Vassilevitch Lomov, a large and hearty, 35 year-old man, who is a neighbour of Chubukov and also a very suspicious landowner. And then, Stepan Stepanovitch Chubukov, a 70 year-old man, who is a landowner, too. And the last is Natalya Stepanovna, a 25 year-old woman, who is a daughter of Chubukov. Chekov tried to satire the Russian social life through this play. This play seems to satire the marriage inside the courtship that get married because of their property possesion and superiority rather than for love. However, Chekhov had displayed it successfully in a ridiculous romantic scene.

Here, the story is begun with the coming of Lomov

Sekilas tentang puisi

Puisi (dari bahasa Yunani kuno: ποιέω/ποιῶ (poiéo/poió) = I create) adalah seni  tertulis di mana bahasa digunakan untuk kualitas estetiknya untuk tambahan, atau selain arti semantiknya.

Beberapa ahli modern memiliki pendekatan dengan mendefinisikan puisi tidak sebagai jenis literatur tapi sebagai perwujudan imajinasi manusia, yang menjadi sumber segala kreativitas. Selain itu puisi juga merupakan curahan isi hati seseorang yang membawa orang lain kedalam keaadaan hatinya.
