Character of chubukov

Answer:    In the one-act play The Proposal, the playwright Anton Chekhov has magnificently presents three interesting characters and Stephen Chubukov is one of them. He was a land owner. He is very much desperate for his 25-year old daughter Natalya’s marriage. He always pretended to be calm, a good neighbour as well as a polite speaking person. But actually, like his daughter. He never missed a chance to argue and quarrel with Lomov. He welcomes Lomov in a polite manner and is happy when he says he has come to propose to his daughter. But again he badly quarrels with Lomov over simple matters. Again later, he does not waste the time to fix marriage when both are agreed though little ago, he was terribly insulting Lomov. Chubukov is projected as a loving father but a greedy man who is desperate to get good match for his daughter. Overall Chubukov is an impetuous and hypocritical man, always runs after his sake.
