Maria Sergeyevna Petrovykh ( rus, Мария Сергеевна Петровых, p=mɐˈrʲijə sʲɪrˈɡʲe(j)ɪvnə pʲɪtrɐˈvɨx; – 1 June 1979) was a Russian poet and translator.

A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes.
