DESCRIPTION:Although Tolstoy and Chekhov have traditionally\, and with jus
 tification\, been associated with the Russian realist movement\, certain n
 arrative techniques evident in their prose\, such as stream of consciousne
 ss\, repetition\, rhythmical phrasing and counterpoint\, seem to point to 
 a closer affinity with literary modernism.  With reference to recent resea
 rch into the musical affinities of works by Virginia Woolf and Katherine M
 ansfield\, this paper will compare and contrast the different ways in whic
 h narrative construction in Tolstoy and Chekhov bears comparison with musi
 cal composition.
