  John Henry Mackay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Henry Mackay (Greenock, Scotland, 1864 - Stahnsdorf 1933) was an individualist anarchist, thinker, writer, and homosexual.
Raised in Germany, Mackay was the friend of Benjamin Tucker, and the author of Die Anarchisten (The Anarchists) (1891) and Der Freiheitsucher (The Searcher for Freedom) (1921).
Mackay was a key populariser of the work of Max Stirner (1806-1856) outside Germany, writing a biography of the philosopher.

 T.A. Riley: New England Anarchism in Germany   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Mackay, who was probably the most rebellious of all the young rebels, went so far towards perdition as to become an anarchist, and to publish Die Anarchisten (1891) in which he preached anarchism as a mass movement to the German populace.
Mackay went over to individualistic anarchism, of which Tucker was the leader, during 1888 and 1889, remaining true to this position long after Tucker's retirement in 1908 and the death of the movement as such in the United States.
Mackay was not entirely out of place when at the age of twenty-three he came to London and settled down for a year among the anarchistic political exiles, the most notorious names in Europe, banned by police from every Continental capital.

 Adolf Brand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The writings and theories of the romantic anarchist John Henry Mackay (1864-1933) had a significant influence on the GdE from 1906.
Mackay had lived in Berlin for a decade and had become a friend of Friedlander, who did not share the anarchist leanings of Brand and Mackay, favoring instead the thinking on 'natural rights' and land reform, then current in Germany.
Brand was a proponent of outing famous gay men long before the advent of the term; when in 1907 he claimed in print that German chancellor Prince von Bülow (1849-1929) had a homosexual affair with Privy Councilor Max Scheefer, he was sued for libel and sentenced to eighteen months in prison.

Mackay interviewed a number of people who had known Stirner and was instrumental in leading a drive to collect funds to place a marker on Stirner's grave in Berlin in the Sophienkirchhof and a bronze plaque on the house in Berlin in which Stirner died at 19 Phillipstrasse.
In 1906 Mackay led another drive to raise funds to place a memorial plaque on the house in Bayreuth in which Stirner was born.
Mackay in the foreword to his book related that he was writing from the position of one who was enamored of his subject.

Mackay presented Stirner to the public as the spiritual forefather of individualistic anarchism.
The impression that Stirner was an anarchist arises from his rejection of all political & moral ties of the individual & his attack on all general concepts, such as right, virtue, duty, etc. The individual himself is the overriding reality, these concepts being mere ghosts.

 John Beverley Robinson / Land Ownership
JOHN BEVERLEY ROBINSON was an early associate of Louis F. Post, the noted single-taxer.
Along with Tucker, John Henry Mackay and others, he rejected "natural rights" as fictitious and embraced the egoism of Max Stirner and the mutualism of Proudhon, whose General Idea of the Revolution in the 19th Century he translated into English (1923 Freedom Press).
Great as were the services of Henry George in familiarizing people with the destructive nature of our present system of land tenure, his single tax scheme cannot be regarded as a remedy.

His Scottish father died when Mackay was only nineteen months old and his German mother returned with him to Germany, where he grew up with German as his mother tongue.
Fame came in 1891 with his propagandistic The Anarchists, but Mackay wrote in a variety of literary forms and some of his lyric poetry was set to music by Richard Strauss.

 Max Stirner
His curiosity excited, Mackay, who is an anarchist, procured after some difficulty a copy of the work, and so greatly was he stirred that for ten years he gave himself up to the study of Stirner and his teachings, and after incredible painstaking published in 1898 the story of his life.
In 1897 Mackay wrote to her in London, asking her for some facts in the life of her husband.
Nearly a half century later Mackay, with the co-operation of Hans von Bülow, affixed a commemorative tablet on the house where he last lived, Phillipstrasse 19, Berlin, and alone Mackay placed a slab to mark his grave in the Sophienkirchhof.

 The Anarchists
John Henry Mackay maintains, from a non violent individualist standpoint, that communist-anarchism is a contradiction in terms.
Mackay was more interested in formal disquisition and less in the art of fiction than were other authors of novels about London's anarchists during the same period: Henry James in The Princess Casamassima and Joseph Conrad in The Secret Agent.
For this purpose Mackay's novel ought to be helpful, for in it famous revolutionaries are only thinly disguised.

In his autobiographical Abrechnung (1932) Mackay wrote: “In 1927 I was able to replace the impossible foreword to Stirner’s Der Einzige in Reclam’s Universal-Bibliothek by my own.
I have used his translation for the one complete sentence that Mackay quotes in his introduction, and in Mackay’s discussion of Stirner’s ideas I have also tried to keep Byington’s translation in mind, since it is the translation that English readers will know.
It should be noted that the title by which that translation is known, The Ego and His Own, was not Byington’s, but was given it by the publisher Benjamin Tucker.

Mackay's authentic Kulturgemalde begins in Victorian London, its five million people struggling with poverty, class conflict, police brutality, and seething with proletarian discontent over the impending execution of othe Haymarket Anarchists in Chicago.

 John Henry Mackay on Communist »Anarchists«
A couple of years ago, while surfing the web back and forth in search for anything and everything with a libertarian angle to it, I came upon this very interesting excerpt from a novel by individualist anarchist John Henry Mackay (1864—1933), A Picture of Civilization at the Close of the Nineteenth Century.
I have not read the novel—actually I don’t even know what its general story is—, nor do I know that much about John Henry Mackay, except that he was some sort of Proudhonian, that he was the biographer of Max Stirner, and that he wrote the lovely poem, »Anarchy« (yandnum=1021957491andstart=0" target="_blank">http://161.58.209.223/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=cultureandaction=displa
