PULTE, Christopher. The community of solitude. Indo-Pac. j. phenomenol. (Online) [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.2, pp.1-10. ISSN 1445-7377.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/20797222.2016.1214364.

This paper re-examines the egos of Edmund Husserl and Max Scheler with reference to Friedrich Nietzsche and the psychologist, James Hillman, and in the process also confronts the ego in other of its many manifestations, misappropriations, and mystifications. The ego is a multi-headed enigma which defies phenomenological description, and only reaches the status of concept by virtue of the gropings of an epistemology which is not up to the task. The goal of this paper is twofold: firstly, to come to terms with what is commonly spoken of as ego, and secondly, to devise a scheme which does justice to it as phenomenon.
