Chapter 1: My Early Home
Chapter 1: My Early Home begins with memories shaped in a peaceful pasture, surrounded by soft grass and the rhythmic hum of nature. At the heart of this place was a clean pond, bordered by rushes and lilies, where the water sparkled in the sun and offered cool relief on warmer days. One end of the field lay near a fir grove, where birds gathered and shade stretched generously, while the other opened toward our master’s house and a tilled field.

Aesopus Emendatus
Aesopus Emendatus offers a refreshing lens on the classic genre of moral storytelling. Rather than merely echoing Aesop’s traditional messages, it reconfigures them to suit more modern interpretations of human behavior.

Trigorin sits at the table, distant and half-engaged, as Masha confesses her decision to marry Medviedenko. It’s a choice made not from love but fatigue—a hope that practicality might numb passion.

Act II — The Seagull
Act II takes place on a warm afternoon near the tranquil lake on Sorin’s estate, where the sun lights the surface gently while conversations shift under the cool shade of a linden tree. Arkadina, Masha, and Dorn pass the time in seemingly casual talk, yet beneath their words lie complex fears and quiet confessions. Arkadina’s lively anecdotes and harsh wit mask a deeper anxiety—one driven by aging, competition, and the looming threat of being forgotten. Her laughter has edges, cutting into anyone who…-

Act I — The Seagull
