Dmitry Ivanovich Pisarev (14 October [O.S. 2 October] 1840 – 16 July [O.S. 4 July] 1868) was a Russian literary critic and philosopher who was a central figure of Russian nihilism. He is noted as a forerunner of Nietzschean philosophy, and for the impact his advocacy of liberation movements and natural science had on Russian history. A critique of his philosophy became the subject of Fyodor Dostoevsky's celebrated novel Crime and Punishment. Read more on Wikipedia
