Acharya Pralhad Keshav Atre has written prose under the name P.K. Atre or Pralhad Keshva Atre; while poetry under the name Keshav Kumar. According to AACR2 P.K. Atre's all documents will be rendered as :

  • A.Atre, Pralhad Keshav, (Keshav Kumar, Pseud)
  • B.P.K. Atre
  • C.Atre, Pralhad Keshav
  • D.Keshav Kumar, Pseud, (i.e. Atre Pralhad Keshav)

Answer: C

All of P.K. Atre's documents are rendered under Atre, Pralhad Keshav.

Under AACR2 a personal author is entered under the surname followed by the forenames, in the fullest form the author commonly uses. Where a person writes some works under the real name and others under a pseudonym, AACR2 treats them as separate bibliographic identities: works under each name are entered under that name, linked by references.

So the prose published as P.K. Atre, the documents the question asks about, goes under Atre, Pralhad Keshav, while the poems would go under Keshav Kumar. 'P.K. Atre' is not in heading form (surname first), and the two options that mix the pseudonym into the heading combine the identities that the rule keeps apart.
