Alexander Pushkin

6. This is the generation who abandons
their experienced generation in the old
age homes. But they are the ones who
always took care of a generation living
at present. And the poem shows the
relation of a grandmother to her
grandchild

7. Alexander Pushkin
Alexander Pushkin (1799- 1837) was born in
Moscow, Russia. He is 'Russia’s Bard‘ and one
of the most important contributors to modern
Russian literature. A proponent of social
reform, Pushkin belonged to an underground
revolutionary movement. This sometimes
interfered with his literary
career and many of his poems, plays and
historical works were censored.

8. To My Nanny
Alexander Pushkin
Dear doting sweetheart of my childhood,
Companion of my austere fate!
In the lone house deep in the wild wood
How patiently for me you wait.
Alone beside your window sitting
You wait for me and blame the clock,
While, in your wrinkled hands, your knitting
Fitfully falters to a stop.
Beyond the crumbling gates the pine trees
Shadow the road you watch so well.
Nameless forebodings, dark anxieties,
Oppress your heart. You cannot tell
What visions haunt you: Now you seem to
See....

You
