Anonymous

Anonymous is a pseudonym used by authors throughout history who chose not to reveal their true identities, often due to social norms, privacy concerns, or the perceived low status of certain genres like the novel. In the 18th century, over 80 percent of novels published in Britain were anonymous, with notable examples including works by Daniel Defoe, Samuel Richardson, Laurence Sterne, Tobias Smollett, and Fanny Burney. This tradition of anonymity persists in various forms, from ancient writings to modern memoirs published under pen names.[1][5]
