Summary/Abstract: The generation of the “theatre of the absurd”, and especially Eugene Ionesco, used irony as an aesthetical instrument to mark the disjunction, the disparty, the difference between a human being and his discourse, between a person and the world. Ionesco chose the theatrical space because of its openeness and of the possibility to suspend monolithic identity in order to allow the dynamic logic of the contradictories express the complexity of a human soul and mind.
