Genetic heirs of Kozma Prutkov (based on the satirical magazines of the first half of the XX century)

The specificity of the satirical magazines suggests the publishing of the works the authorship of which is concealed by the pseudonyms. In the first half of the XX century the authors update the comic tradition of Kozma Prutkov and choose the pseudonym pointing to the relation with the quasi-author. The frequency of using the motives of his works and the pseudonym connecting “the father of parody” with his sons hesitates from a singular appeal to the creation of a full literary mask.
