Constance Clara Garnett (née Black; 19 December 1861 – 17 December 1946) was a pioneering English translator of nineteenth-century Russian literature. She was notable for being the first English translator to render numerous volumes of Anton Chekhov's work into English and was also the first to translate almost all of Fyodor Dostoevsky's fiction into English.
Her translations extended to works by prominent Russian authors such as Ivan Turgenev, Leo Tolstoy, Nikolai Gogol, Ivan Goncharov, Alexander Ostrovsky, and Alexander Herzen. Altogether, Garnett translated a remarkable total of 71 volumes of Russian literature, many of which continue to be in print and influential today.
