Der Eigene

The title of the journal, Der Eigene (no exact English equivalent but has been translated as The Self-Possessed), refers to the classic anarchist work Der Einzige und sein Eigentum (1844) by Max Stirner. Early issues reflected the philosophy of Stirner, as well as other views on the politics of anarchism. By the second year of its focus, it settled into a focus on homosexuality. In 2020, the Humboldt University of Berlin made the complete set of the magazine available on its website, with censorship in form of pixelation applied to several pages containing artistic photographs and paintings. ==Gallery==
