Summary/Abstract: Eugene Ionesco’s conception about history was determined by the historical events that he lived in Romania and in France, but also by his artist statute. Eugene Ionesco’ vision of the history is derived from his conception of the world and of the human condition. He was against the history which was « mystification and imposture ». In Ionesco’s opinion, all the revolutions failed, the real revolutionaries are the scientists and the artists, because they are preoccupied by existential condition of the man.
