The Anonymity of the Author

The anonymity of an author means that their identity is kept secret, and no one knows who they are. This can be intentional, to protect the author’s privacy or safety, or to focus attention on the message rather than the person. In some cases, anonymity allows authors to express controversial ideas or personal stories without fear of judgment or repercussions. It is a way to separate the content of the work from the person behind it, ensuring that the message can be judged on its merit rather than who wrote it.
