Friedrich Nietzsche

It was called «The Birth of Tragedy from the Spirit of Music.» In a preface, subsequently published, the author, whose style had in the mean time undergone a complete transformation, bids us observe that «behind this questionable book lay a problem of the first rank and enticement, but likewise a deep personal interest.» Certain is it that in «The Birth of Tragedy» we may discern «that unbodied figure of the thought, which gave it surmised shape.»… Nietzsche's grasp of the whole Greek...

The Ego and His Own

Max Stirner

The Ego and His Own

Credited with influencing the philosophies of Nietzsche and Ayn Rand and the development of libertarianism and existentialism, this prophetic 1844 work challenges the very notion of a common good as the driving force of civilization. Stirner chronicles the battle of the individual against the collective to show how the latter invariably leads to oppression.
