From "The Ego And Its Own", by Max Stirner

Egoism, by John Beverly Robinson

Excerpts from -Slaves to Duty, by John Badcock

Excerpts from early issues of The New Freewoman, by Dora Marsden

Max Stirner web pages

A complementary Stirnerite web site, run by Svein Olav Nyberg. Comes with brief bio on Stirner, his relation to the Young Hegelians, and an analysis of Stirner's egoism.
