Iulia Lumânare makes a theoretical and philosophical connection between two fields of knowledge, synthesizing the influences of psychoanalytic ideas in Chekhov's dramaturgy. Assuming a largely philosophical and meta-analytic perspective, the author makes an incursion into Chekhov's creative act, with the help of the explanatory concepts of psychoanalysis.
This starts from the premise that "Chekhov's dramaturgy does not exist outside of Chekhov. Dramaturgy is the most honest statement about oneself"; thus, Chekhov's dramatic work can only be understood based on understanding Chekhov's being, just as the work highlights essential aspects of the author's being. However, for such an approach, a mandatory and necessary first step is to demystify the playwright and reposition him as a human being. The purpose of the analysis undertaken in this direction could be formulated in the sense of denying the common belief that creation represents the result of some kind of mythological capacity of the author (of connecting with the divinity), and on the other hand to support the idea that the creative act represents a contrary movement, towards oneself and the acceptance of one's own Shadow.
In her approach, Iulia demonstrates a refined and profound understanding of the functioning of the human psyche, identifying creation as a process of the creator's being, "a succession of stages through which a thought transforms into a story", and not as an expression of a predefined matrix, possibly acquired by birth, according to which the creator acts. Iulia illustrates the presence of the concepts described by psychoanalysis in Chekhov's dramatic work, showing how it can be understood in terms of the process through which the author integrates, transforms and re-signifies his own past experiences and dramas.
