He died in 1888 in Tiflis present day Tbilisi . Raffi is a prominent figure of Armenian literature. Biography He came from a family of hereditary Persian gentry, his father being a wealthy farmer, merchant and the highest civil authority of the village. Thus, Raffi s financial situation, along with his being the eldest of a large family of 13 children, eventually allowed him to benefit from a privileged education in which he was exposed to the full spectrum of classical, Russian and Western European masterpieces of literature. His education began in the home of the village priest, Ter Todik. There, in a small room adjacent to the barn, boys of all ages and levels of learning were taught under constant fear of corporal punishment. In his novel called Kaytser Sparks Raffi gives a vivid description of these punishments and denounces them. At the age of 12, he was sent by his father to continue his secondary education at a boarding school in Tiflis Tbilisi , the capital city of Georgia. Tiflis was at the time a major center of Armenian intellectual life.
