What follows is a list of Individualist Anarchist and Egoist journals. The overlap in writers was significant and at times writers wavered from one to the other. As we’re able we will put archives online of the journals, whether just indexes, excerpts, individual issues or complete runs.
What constitutes an “egoist journal” is something that has been discussed among some of us, and we do try to make the distinction between an “Egoist journal” and a “journal by an Egoist”, and generally not include the latter below. That distinction isn’t always as clear as we’d like. We can look to John Basil Barnhill aka John Erwin McCall as an example. He was responsible for one of my favorite egoist journals The Eagle and the Serpent (1898), but also The American Anti-Socialist. The former is clearly, unarguably an Egoist Journal. The latter is pretty clearly detached from egoism in any explicit way, even though it is published by an advocate of Egoism. Some of the titles listed here are on speculation, as no actual copies of a few of them have been acquired by the UoE in any format, but we’re relying on bibliographic data or some other account that would lead.
