Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin(Russian:Алекса́ндр Серге́евич Пу́шкин,tr.Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin,IPA:[ɐlʲɪˈksandr sʲɪˈrɡʲejɪvʲɪt͡ɕ ˈpuʂkʲɪn](listen); 6June[O.S.26 May]1799– 10 February[O.S.29 January]1837) was aRussianauthor of theRomanticera[1]who is considered by many to be the greatest Russian poet[2][3][4][5]and the founder of modernRussian literature.[6][7]

Pushkin was born intoRussian nobilityin Moscow. His great-grandfather from his mother\'s side –Abram Gannibal– was brought over as a slave from Africa and had risen to become an aristocrat.[8]Pushkin published his first poem at the age of fifteen, and was widely recognized by the literary establishment by the time of his graduation from theTsarskoye Selo Lyceum.

While under the strict surveillance of theTsar\'s political policeand unable to publish, Pushkin wrote his most famous play, the dramaBoris Godunov. Hisnovel in verse,Eugene Onegin, was serialized between 1825 and 1832.

Notoriously touchy about his honour, Pushkin fought as many as twenty-nineduels, and was fatally wounded in such an encounter withGeorges-Charles de Heeckeren d\'Anthès. D\'Anthès, a French officer serving with theChevalier Guard Regiment, had been attempting to seduce the poet\'s wife,Natalya Pushkina.
