'''Alexander Efimovich Izmaylov''' (Алекса′ндр Ефи′мович Изма′йлов; 25 April 1779, in Vladimir Governorate, Russian Empire – 28 January 1831, in Saint Petersburg, Russian Empire) was a Russian fabulist, poet, novelist, publisher (''Tsvetnik'', ''Blagonamerenny'' magazines), pedagogue and one-time state official (a Tver and Arkhangelsk Governorates' vice-governor). Lauded for his satirical fables (by, among others, Vissarion Belinsky), Alexander Izmaylov is considered to be the last major literary figure of the Russian Enlightenment.<ref>[http://slovari.yandex.ru/измайлов%20ефимович/БСЭ/Измайлов%20Александр%20Ефимович/ Aлександр Ефимович Измайлов]{{Dead link|date=October 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} at slovari.yandex.ru.</ref><ref>[http://az.lib.ru/i/izmajlow_a_e/text_0010.shtml Александр Ефимович Измайлов] at the Soviet Literary Encyclopedia // Тимофеев Л.
