Max Stirner - Ownness
This video examines Max Stirner's egoism, focusing on ownness. I begin by explaining the role ownness plays in Stirner's egoism; then I examine Stirner's account of how individuals subjugate themselves by reifying abstractions; and finally, I present Stirner's critique of freedom and show how freedom contrasts with ownness.
My second video on Stirner: • Max Stirner - Anarchy
0:00 - Intro
0:47 - Stirner's egoism
9:38 - Ownness vs "ordinary egoism"
14:05 - Reification
24:54 - Critique of freedom
37:05 - Summary
As I noted at the beginning of the video, this is more an introduction to things that I find interesting in Stirner, than an introduction to Stirner. For the latter, SEP is, as always, a useful place to start: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/ma...
