Abstract
The German Ideology has rarely been considered in its entirety; its belated publication1 and translation has obscured its contents. Its most lengthy section, ‘Saint Max’, a detailed examination of Max Stirner’s book The Ego and his Own (Der Einzige und sein Eigentum), has been almost completely ignored.2 Roy Pascal’s long-standard English language translation of The German Ideology3 omitted Marx’s sustained attack on Stirner, but many of the most important arguments that have long been associated with The German Ideology find their fullest expression in ‘Saint Max’.4 ‘Saint Max’ indicates why Marx put forward the arguments of The German Ideology in the way that he did, and why he put them forward at all. ‘Saint Max’ is no mere satellite to a parent body, The German Ideology; ‘Saint Max’ is its core.
