Antin Volodyslavovych Krushelnytskyi (Ukrainian: Антін Володиславович Крушельницький; 4 August [O.S. 23 July] 1878 – 3 November 1937) was a Ukrainian and Soviet writer, translator, literary critic, teacher and politician who served as Minister of Education of Ukraine for a short period in 1919. His decision to evade persecution in the Second Polish Republic by emigrating to the Soviet Union ended in tragedy and turned the whole Krushelnytskyi family into symbolic figures of the Executed Renaissance.
