Synopsis

The Ego and His Own is a philosophical work written by Max Stirner and originally published in 1844. The book is a critique of traditional morality, religion, and politics, and argues that individuals should reject all external authority and follow only their own self-interest. Stirner's philosophy is based on the idea that the individual ego is the only true source of value and meaning in life, and that individuals should strive to maximize their own power and freedom without regard for the opinions or expectations of others. The book is divided into three parts, each of which explores different aspects of Stirner's philosophy. The first part discusses the concept of the ego and its relationship to society, while the second part examines the role of religion and morality in shaping individual behavior. The final part of the book explores the practical implications of Stirner's philosophy, including his views on politics, economics, and social organization. Overall, The Ego and His Own is a challenging and provocative work that continues to influence modern philosophy and political thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Biographie de l'auteur

Johann Kaspar Schmidt (1806–1856), better known as Max Stirner (the nom de plume he adopted from a schoolyard nickname he had acquired as a child because of his high brow, in German 'Stirn'), was a German philosopher, who ranks as one of the literary fathers of nihilism, existentialism, post-modernism and anarchism, especially of individualist anarchism. Stirner's main work is The Ego and Its Own, also known as The Ego and His Own (Der Einzige und sein Eigentum in German, which translates literally as The Only One and his Property). This work was first published in 1844 in Leipzig, and has since appeared in numerous editions and translations.
