 the alter ego or identical double of the protagonist, resulting from identity theft or a paranoid hallucination;
 the split personality or dark half of the protagonist, a physical manifestation of a dissociated part of the self. 

7. identification and othering an identical alter ego: the protagonist is trying to resist a process of identification with a doppelgänger who seems to be taking over or merging with his identity.

9. allegory of socialization
an identical alter ego: in order to develop an ego it is necessary internalize the imaginary order created by society: I must identify as ‘I’ that which is not me.

10. allegory of socialization
a split personality: concerns the necessity of renouncing (othering) the socially unacceptable sides of the self: I must other as ‘not-I’ that which is myself.
