Ego is not a dirty word by Karen Chappelow

Original Watercolour and Ink painting framed under glass 57x70cm

Cicero coined the term as part of his philosophical construct in 1st-century Rome, but he described it as “a second self, a trusted friend”.

Anton Mesmer and his followers used hypnosis to separate the alter ego. These experiments showed a behaviour pattern that was distinct from the personality of the individual when he was in the waking state compared with when he was under hypnosis. Another character had developed in the altered state of consciousness but in the same body.

Freud throughout his career would appeal to such instances of dual consciousness to support his thesis of the unconscious. Freud considered the roots of the phenomenon of the alter ego to be in the narcissistic stage of early childhood.

Finally shout out to The Skyhooks for the title-classic track.
