“笔名”一词源自古希腊语,是作家在发表作品时不用其真实名字而另外起用的名字。笔名的使用在欧洲由来已久。18—19世纪俄国作家开始广泛使用笔名。他们的笔名往往比他们的真名更为人们所熟知。俄罗斯作家的笔名来源于他们生活的方方面面,一般都有其独特内涵,值得我们挖掘其中所蕴蓄的文化内涵。 The term “pen name” originates from the ancient Greek, and is the name other than the actual name of a writer who publishes his work. The use of pseudonyms has been around for a long time in Europe. Russian writers began to make extensive use of pseudonyms in the 18th and 19th centuries. Their pseudonyms are often more familiar than their real names. Russian writers derive their pen name from all aspects of their life and generally have their own unique connotations. It is worth our excavation of the cultural connotations contained therein.
