Since the first edition in 1896, \u003ci\u003eMight is Right\u003c\/i\u003e has inspired those across a dynamic political and philosophical spectrum.

Unlike so many utopian manifestos of the day, the bombastic yet lyrical text attributed to Ragnar Redbeard (a pseudonym) sought to upend \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e egalitarianism, \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e theism, and \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e political idealism. Such sacrosanct values were, by Redbeard’s stentorian decree, swept into the garbage bin—to be replaced with the singular \u003ci\u003emight\u003c\/i\u003e. To be sure, the author did not posit this to be a \u003ci\u003egood\u003c\/i\u003e way, or the \u003ci\u003ebest\u003c\/i\u003e way, but merely the only way things exist and prosper: struggle and strife as the eternal state of life, even when gowned in the pious sackcloth of the church or the saffron sheets of the temple. Since its original publication in 1896, the influence of \u003ci\u003eMight is Right\u003c\/i\u003e has been found in curious places, from syndicalist broadsides of the IWW to the canonical texts of the Church of Satan, but perhaps the most surprising historical example of literary “Redbeardiana” traces to the puritanical paraphrasis of a largely forgotten American writer named Julia “Bernie” Babcock. Following the death of her husband in 1897, the 29-year-old Babcock turned to writing as a means of earning income for her large family. She found some early success and her work was championed by one of the oldest (still active) political parties in the United States: the Prohibitionist Party. It was during her brief residence in Chicago at the turn of the 20th century that Babcock most likely came across Ragnar Redbeard’s inflammatory book, which had already caused a stir in the anarchist and unionist milieu of the time in the US and abroad. She used the book as many others have since her time: as uncredited primary source material for her own work. The result of her effort was \u003ci\u003eWith Claw and Fang: A Fact Story in a Chicago Setting\u003c\/i\u003e, a bizarre novel of prohibitionist agitprop that depicted anarchists conspiring with liquor barons to corrupt the hearts and minds of good Christian people. Babcock’s lurid tale was intended as nothing less than a full-on assault on what she believed to be the greatest enemy of civility: “Personal Liberty.” While it may be tempting for contemporary readers to mock Babcock’s moral rectitude and to dismiss her novel for its prudish melodrama and flat caricatures, the independent historian Trevor Blake (author of \u003ci\u003eConfessions of A Failed Egoist\u003c\/i\u003e, Underworld Amusements, 2014) favors a more nuanced consideration of her life and work. In his introduction to this new edition of \u003ci\u003eWith Fang and Claw\u003c\/i\u003e, Blake reveals the author to be a sympathetic and even fascinating woman of her time. As an individual Miss Babcock proved to be a singular cultural force who, through a curious connection to HL Mencken, founded a local historical museum that today has a budget of hundreds of millions of dollars. She was a widowed mother of five children who deployed her skills as a polemicist rather than accept handouts. If Bernie Babcock is remembered for nothing else, we may yet marvel that her ironic appropriation of a firebrand scribe served to introduce one of history’s most blasphemous tomes to many good Christian soldiers. Indeed, she would have them read Redbeard’s introductory pronouncement: “I dip my finger in the watery blood of that Lamb of God, that impotent mob-redeemer, that bastard Jew, and write above his thorn-torn brow ‘King of eunuch virtues! Fraud! Liar! Fiend!’”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\"Babcock, Bernie. With Claw and Fang; A Fact Story in a Chicago Setting. Indianapolis: Clean Politics, 1911. 112pp. In this temperance novel, Babcock uses Russian immigrants to illustrate the evils of alcohol and the dangers it poses to society. Babcock's character, Ulig Golzosch, a heavy drinker and one of the Haymarket rioters, dies during the riot, but not before he offends against the Church during this action against the state by spitting on a crucifix. His son Nikola narrowly finds redemption just before his death by renouncing alcohol. Babcock identifies Chicago as 'the Sodom of America.'\" —James A.

Stirner.\u003c\/i\u003e traces the development of relativist thinking as exemplified in the three philosophers of its title. Protagoras is the originator of relativism with his dictum “Man (the individual) is the measure of all things”. This in turn is taken up by Stirner and Nietzsche. Of the two, however, Stirner is by far the most consistent and for this reason Lachmann places him after Nietzsche in his account. For him Stirner surpasses Nietzsche by bringing Protagorean relativism to its logical conclusion in conscious egoism-the fulfilment of one’s own will.\r\nIn fact, he views Nietzsche as markedly inferior to Stirner both in respect to his style and the clarity of his thinking. “In contrast to Nietzsche’s work,” he writes, \u003ci\u003eThe Ego And Its Own\u003c\/i\u003e “is written in a clear, precise form and language, though it avoids the pitfalls of a dry academic style. Its sharpness, clarity and passion make the book truly shattering and overwhelming.” Unlike Nietzsche’s, Stirner’s philosophy does not lead to the replacement of one religious “spook” by another, the substitution of the “Superman” for the Christian “God”. On the contrary, it makes “the individual’s interests the centre of the world.”\r\nIntelligent, lucid and well-conceived, Lachmann’s essay throws new light on Stirner’s ideas.\r\n—Sidney E.

With the intention of developing a higher form of state and society and of mankind in general, it leads to the cultivation of separate individuals who direct the masses as leaders. At all times, however, the idea of the “state,” “community” or “humanity” stands as a goal at the end of the way. This was the path taken by Protagoras and Friedrich Nietzsche.\r\nThe second way rises up more steeply and more boldly than the first. “As each thing appears to each man, so is it for him.”\r\nVia the dissolution of the “state” and of “humanity,” it leads to the possibility of giving the individual the right to decide his own values, of making the individual’s interests the centre of his own world and making him master over the things in it. This was the path taken by Max Stirner.","brand":"Underworld Amusements","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31299392766021,"sku":"SA1090","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/0461\/0117\/products\/photo_2018-09-18_17-02-00.jpg?v=1585490164"},{"product_id":"der-geist-journal-vol-1-no-1","title":"Der Geist: The Journal of Egoism from 1845 to 1945  | Issue 1","description":"DER GEIST, The Journal of Egoism from 1845 – 1945 VOLUME 1 NUMBER 1 WINTER 2017 (Published 25 October 2017) Paperback, 160 pages, fifteen dollars ISBN 978-1-944651-08-5 April 1st, 2016 heralded in the beginning of UnionOfEgoists.com, and on October 25th, 2017 they announced its official journal: \u003ci\u003eDer Geist\u003c\/i\u003e. 160 pages of new and reprinted rare material.

Pagan was a public speaker and author with an egoist perspective on sex and relations. The topics he addressed and the groups he spoke to show a singular dedication to the individual’s wants (and wantonness) as supreme over society. For Love and Money is a pamphlet collecting two published speeches by this strident individualist. It was promoted as a pamphlet that “EGOISTS SHOULD READ” in the Nietzschean\/Egoist journal The Eagle and the Serpent in 1898. A review in the contemporary British journal \u003ci\u003eThe Adult\u003c\/i\u003e said: “Any who draw their portraits of free lovers from Artemus Ward’s delightful absurdities will regard the distinction of a free lover with a sense of humour as sufficiently unique, but in adding to this gift of writing wittily and luminously on the currency question, Mr. Pagan attains to the miraculous.” We see there a now wholly obscure reference to Abraham Lincoln’s favorite author (real name Charles F. Browne), who published a story \u003ci\u003eArtemus Ward Among the Free Lovers\u003c\/i\u003e in 1858. The two sections of \u003ci\u003eFor Love and Money\u003c\/i\u003e were advertised as follows: 1.— The Judgment of Paris—up to date, a lecture given before the Legitimation League, dealing in the most unconventional way with the vital questions of marriage and free love. 2.—The Money Famine, a reprint of an interesting article on the money question from the Free Review.\u003chr\u003eThis facsimile was prepared by Underworld Amusements for the \u003cb\u003eUnion of Egoists.

Sure, superheroes may have stopped crimes and Popeye may have known his share of dust-ups. But what about the million annoying twerps who don’t break the law, but instead stomp on the social contract? When do they get theirs? Everett had no superpowers nor can of spinach, just a keen sense of human nature and the will to reward it but good. \r\nEverett True wished to live a simple life. He wished to go about his day without being unnecessarily bothered. His success then was not far from your own today. From loud-mouths in the theater to the overly pushy salesman, from the incessantly bothersome co-worker to the sidewalk hoggers, there’s always some do-gooder who needs done in. You and I might take it on the chin, but Everett gives it on the noggin with interest. \r\nOutbursts of Everett True rarely strays from a natural formula: the pest impinges on Everett, Everett clobbers the pest. Far from repetitive, the rhythm reveals the timeless truth that the line between justice and revenge is a phantom’s dream. Away with pity for the braggart, the inconsiderate, the assuming, the imposing, the blowhards, those cruel to animals and all the other pushy clods who would turn a perfectly pleasant day into a trial. \r\nHere are the best and brassiest Outbursts of Everett True. Many are reprinted for the first time since they were created by A. D. Condo and J. W. Raper, beginning in 1905.

Born in Ulster to poor parents, left to struggle for himself at an early age, lacking any formal education and obliged to labor in the fields.

He describes how he taught himself to become a public speaker, threw in his lot with revolutionaries, went to prison in Manchester as an agitator, and finally lost faith in all political theories. He has some pungent things to say about his ex-comrades in the Labour and Socialist movements as well as some interesting stories about many famous men and women whom he met in the course of his very varied career.
