A first edition of the biographical and critical study of Alexander Pushkin by the influential Soviet literary scholar and critic Valery Yakovlevich Kirpotin (1898–1997). Published in 1936 by the State Literary Publishing House (Goslitizdat), this concise volume reflects the official Soviet interpretation of Pushkin's legacy during the Stalinist era, emphasizing his role as a progressive and national poet. The book features decorative headpieces and a tailpiece by artist A. Surikov. As a product of its time, it represents the ideological appropriation of Russia's greatest poet within the framework of socialist realism and state cultural policy.
