Объяснение:
Hi Karen, how are you? Let me tell you about Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin !? The origin of Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin comes from the branched, unpopular noble family of the Pushkins, who, according to the genealogical legend, went back to Ratshe's “honest husband” . Pushkin repeatedly wrote about his genealogy in poetry and prose; he saw in his ancestors an example of a true “aristocracy”, an ancient family that honestly served the fatherland, but did not win the favor of the rulers and “persecuted”. More than once he turned (including in an art form) to the image of his mother’s great-grandfather - African Abram Petrovich Hannibal, who became a servant and pupil of Peter I, and then a military engineer and general.
