The Ego And His Own

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.
