A seminar entitled “Ego Death: The Loss of ‘Subjective Self-identity’ in Ionesco’s Rhinoceros .
on Monday 12/11/2018 at 11:00 a.m ” is presented at the Department of English by Dr. Bakhtiar S. Hama.
The seminar is a psychological study of Ionesco’s Rhinoceros. In Jungian Psychology, Ego death is known as psychic death. It simply means that the person improves his/her past life and makes radical changes in it as if he was born again; he goes from one stage to another to start life anew. This transformation of the psych is crucial for human beings to rebuild their lives if the ego death is positive. In this case, mind will become a tabula rasa and the persons can design a beautiful future on it. Unfortunately, the metamorphosis or the ego death in Ionesco’s Rhinoceros is mostly negative. The characters, except Berenger, become rhinoceroses; they lose their subjective identity one after another. Their change is not to return to their pure origin as human beings but to become a dangerous beast.
