Analyze how Chekhov uses language choice to develop theme in these excerpts.

Here

These two excerpts are both written by the lawyer in letters to the banker. The diction in the first excerpt is obsessive and passionate. The lawyer seems to be involved in the world of knowledge and finds joy in the little ways in which he can communicate with the world. Although he doesn’t have much access to the world, he still tries to be masterful in its beauty. The diction in the second excerpt, written years later, almost seems like it’s written by a different person. The lawyer is bitter, unhappy, and pessimistic. The language choices that Chekhov gives to the lawyer supports the theme that life needs to be lived well, not just lived. Although the lawyer is still alive, he’s lost all desire to live. He bet that just being alive would be enough, but since he has just walked out on all that he once saw as valuable (money), he has no reason to live.
