Tazit (Russian: Тазит) is an unfinished narrative poem by Alexander Pushkin, composed in late 1829 and early 1830 and first published in 1837, after Pushkin's death. One of several works by Pushkin set in the Caucasus, its eponymous hero is a young Circassian man who is renounced by his father for refusing to avenge his brother. The poem ends with the exiled Tazit asking his beloved's father for his daughter's hand in marriage. Some more verses for the poem found in Pushkin's manuscript draft describe Tazit's rejection by his beloved's father and his subsequent loneliness. Pushkin also wrote outlines for the further development of the story which suggest that Tazit meets a missionary, possibly converting to Christianity, then dies during a war between the Circassians and Russians. The story of the poem may have been inspired by a secondary plotline in the Walter Scott novel The Fair Maid of Perth.
