Eduard Bagritsky (Russian: Эдуа́рд Гео́ргиевич Багри́цкий; IPA: [ɪdʊˈard ɡʲɪˈorɡʲɪjɪvʲɪtɕ bɐˈɡrʲitskʲɪj]; November 3 [O.S. October 22] 1895 – February 16, 1934) was an important Russian and Soviet poet of the Constructivist School.
He was a Neo-Romantic early in his poetic career; he was also a part of the so-called Odessa School of Russian writers (which also included Isaak Babel, Yuri Olesha, Valentin Katayev, Vera Inber, Ilya Ilf and Yevgeni Petrov, among others). A large number of this school's writers were Odessa natives who often incorporated Ukrainian inflections and vocabulary into their writing.
Born Eduard Dzyubin (Russian: Эдуа́рд Гео́ргиевич Дзю́бин; IPA: [ˈdzʲʉbʲɪn]; Ukrainian: Дзю́бін) in Odessa, most of his creative career took place in Moscow. After his early death from asthma, his friends helped to publish several of his works posthumously to provide financial assistance to his family. Isaak Babel, for example, planned to write a screenplay based on Bagritsky's long poem "Duma about Opanas" (the script was never finished and was eventually lost).
