The Duel (Russian: Дуэль, romanized: Duél') is a novella by Anton Chekhov originally published in 1891. "The Duel" is a compelling exploration of personal conflict and the nature of honor through the lens of a tense and morally complex duel. This morality tale pits a scientist, a government worker, his mistress, a deacon, and a physician against one another in a verbal battle of wits and ethics that explodes into a violent contest: The Duel.
When Laevsky, a lazy youth who works for the government, tires of his dependent mistress, Nadyezhda Fyodorovna, Von Koren, the scientist, delivers a scathing critique of Loevsky’s egotism, forcing the young man to examine his soul.
"The Duel" is acclaimed for its deep psychological insight and its nuanced portrayal of honor and conflict. This story is essential for those interested in Chekhov’s examination of human behavior and the moral complexities inherent in personal disputes.
