FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Max Stirners The Ego and Its Own is striking and distinctive in both style and content. First published in 1844, Stirners distinctive and powerful polemic sounded the death-knell of left Hegelianism, with its attack on Ludwig Feuerbach, Bruno and Edgar Bauer, Moses Hess and others. It also constitutes an enduring critique of both liberalism and socialism from the perspective of an extreme eccentric individualism. Karl Marx was only one of many contemporaries provoked into a lengthy rebuttal of Stirners argument. Stirner has been portrayed, variously, as a precursor of Nietzsche (both stylistically and substantively), a forerunner of existentialism and as an individualist anarchist. This edition of his work comprises a revised version of Steven Byingtons much praised translation, together with an introduction and notes on the historical background to Stirners text. Table of Contents Introduction; Principal events in Stirners life; Further reading; Note on the translation; The Ego and its own; Bibliographical and other notes on the text; Index of subjects; Index of proper names.
