Question

is the play, the proposal, a farce? justify your answer with close reference to the text?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Anton Chekhov's "The Proposal" is usually classified as a farce, rather than satire, because it is a short work that focuses on a single idea in a limited way with comical stereotypes such as the hypochondriac [Lomov], the shrew [Natalia], and the hypocrite [chubukov]
