The Registry of Pseudonyms

        The Registry of Pseudonyms is an ongoing accumulation
of pseudonyms, including actors, artists, drag queens, criminals,
journalists, popes, editors, mathematicians, philosophers, directors,
unmarried couples, historians, dancers, boxers, queens, translators,
prisoners, and of course authors. In addition to a listing of aliases and
the ‘real’ names behind them, this register also unveils some of the
reasons behind the concealment of a name; telling the stories of who is who and why who is who.
        The Registry of Pseudonyms examines the term ‘pseudonym’ and the history of the phenomenon by recording, arranging and displaying the individual cases.
        All contributions are summaries of existing texts, as mentioned in the sources. For more information or questions regarding copyright please contact info@registryofpseudonyms.com
