Eduard Bagritsky (Russian: ????´?? ???´??????? ?????´????, IPA: [?d?'ard g??'org??j?v??t? b?'gr?itsk??j] (listen); 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.
