Max Stirner's The Unique and Its Property (1844) is the first
ruthless critique of modern society. In All Things are Nothing to
Me, Jacob Blumenfeld reconstructs the unique philosophy of Max
Stirner (1806-1856), a figure that strongly influenced-for better
or worse-Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche, Emma Goldman as well as
numerous anarchists, feminists, surrealists, illegalists,
existentialists, fascists, libertarians, dadaists, situationists,
insurrectionists and nihilists of the last two centuries.
Misunderstood, dismissed, and defamed, Stirner's work is considered
by some to be the worst book ever written. It combines the worst
elements of philosophy, politics, history, psychology, and
morality, and ties it all together with simple tautologies, fancy
rhetoric, and militant declarations. That is the glory of Max
Stirner's unique footprint in the history of philosophy. Jacob
Blumenfeld wanted to exhume this dead tome along with its dead
philosopher, but discovered instead that, rather than deceased,
their spirits are alive and quite well, floating in our presence.
All Things are Nothing to Me is a forensic investigation into how
Stirner has stayed alive throughout time.
