Abstract
The study aims to determine the role of the pseudonym formation of the Russian writer N. A. Teffi in perception of women’s creativity in the first third of the XX century. The article clarifies motives for choosing the pseudonym and identifies mechanisms of its formation. Scientific novelty of the study lies in analysing intertextual connections of the pseudonym Teffi with the British literature and cultural and linguistic environment. As a result, it is proved that allusiveness of the pseudonym Teffi is a deliberate hoax retrospectively created to capture specific attitude towards women’s creativity in the Russian modernism.
