александр сергеевич пушкин родился 6 июня 1799 г. в москве.

его отец, отставной майор сергей львович пушкин, принадлежал к старому, некогда богатому, дворянскому роду, а мать была внучкой ,,арапа петра великого” (позднее – генерала ).

отец и мать, захваченные великосветской жизнью, обращали мало внимания на детей, из которых выросли только трое: старшая дочь ольга, сыновья александр и лев. остальные дети умерли еще в детстве. их воспитанием занимались часто менявшиеся иностранные гувернеры, о которых у а. с. пушкина остались неприятные воспоминания. в детские годы его лучшим другом была няня арина родионовна, неграмотная крепостная крестьянка, песни и сказки которой привили ее воспитаннику любовь к народной поэзии.
