read Stirner's Critics.

>you are more than a male, but you are also a male; but humanity and masculinity do not express you exhaustively, and you can therefore be indifferent to everything that is held up to you as ‘true humanity’ or ‘true masculinity.’

Hegel and Bauer.

Kant, Hegel, that sort of stuff. Read Stirner and you won't have to waste your time with Plebsche and other trash.

Why not just read all of the young Hegelians?

I haven't read any of the Greeks, aren't they mostly simple epics? If anyone gives a good reason to read them I will bump them up on my backlog.

Uh, Homer is mostly epics, but Greek writing that isn't epic poetry is mostly not epics, no. You have non-epic poetry, history, drama, philosophy, etc. They had a rich culture.

>I haven't read any of the Greeks, aren't they mostly simple epics?

There are five extant Greek epics (as defined by moderns: "epos" covered other forms too) - Hesiod's Theogony, and the Iliad and Odyssey attributed to Homer are very early; Apollonius'; Argonautica is a learned, literary product of a scholar in Hellenistic Alexandria; and much later there is Quintus Smyrnaeus' continuation of Homer, and Nonnos' Dionysiaka, the single longest poem surviving from Greco-Roman antiquity. So epic is a tiny part of the extant Greek corpus. There is also lyric and other short poetry (surviving in everything from books of complete poems, like Pindar, Theocritus, Theognis, and the collection in the Greek Anthology; to tiny fragments), tragedy (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides), two distinct forms of comedy (Aristophanes, Menander), history (Herodotos, Thucydides, Xenophon, Polybius, Arrian, Cassius Dio), philosophy (Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, Epicurus, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius, plus lesser texts and fragments of lost works by people like the Pythagoreans, and the "Presocratics"), oratory (Demosthenes, Andocides, Isocrates, etc.), and fiction (Longus, Achilles Tatius, Xenophon of Ephesus, Heliodorus); including writers who span forms or genres (Xenophon, Plutarch, Lucian).

Stirner is the end of philosophy.

You need nothing else. The Greeks are a waste of time, with perhaps the exception of Odysseus' dog, Argos. He is the perfect execution of depicting the soul of a living thing.

I guess you can use Stirner for your feminist faggotry course, but don't expect anyone to understand. Gender theory is for angry genetic failures....I doubt they have the intellect to even understand what spooks are.
