Answer
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel overshadowed Max Stirner’s fame initially because Hegel was considered to be a more influential philosopher. Hegel’s work on dialectics and the Hegelian Dialectic is considered to be a foundational concept in philosophy. Stirner, on the other hand, was not as well-known as Hegel during his lifetime. It wasn’t until the late 19th and early 20th centuries that Stirner’s work began to gain more popularity.
