Viktor E. Frankl was a medical doctor at a psychiatric hospital in 1942 when he became a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps in World War II. In 1946, he published this book about his camp experiences and a method of psychotherapy he developed. Forty-five years later, it was still named one of the most influential books in the United States. Part One describes his three years in four Nazi concentration camps, which took the lives of his wife, father, mother, and brother. He closely observed inmates’ reactions to their situation, as well as how survivors came to terms with their liberation.

Viktor Frankl is known to millions of listeners as a psychotherapist who has transcended his field in his search for answers to the ultimate questions of life, death, and suffering.

Eleven months after his liberation from Auschwitz, Viktor E. Frankl held a series of public lectures in Vienna. The psychologist, who was to become world famous, explained his central thoughts on meaning, resilience and the importance of embracing life even in the face of great adversity. Published for the very first time, Frankl’s words resonate as strongly today as they did in 1946. He offers an insightful exploration of the maxim ‘live as if you were living for the second time’ and unfolds his basic conviction that every crisis also includes an opportunity. 

Weltbestseller und Meisterwerk der psychologischen Literatur. Viktor E. Frankl war Professor für Neurologie und Psychiatrie an der Universität Wien und 25 Jahre hindurch Vorstand der Wiener Neurologischen Poliklinik. Mehrere Jahre musste Viktor Frankl in deutschen Konzentrationslagern verbringen. 1946 diktierte Viktor Frankl innerhalb von 9 Tagen einen Bericht über seine Erlebnisse in Konzentrationslagern. So entstand das Buch, das unter dem Titel "... trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen" veröffentlicht wurde.

Born in 1905 in the center of the crumbling Austro-Hungarian Empire, Viktor Frankl was a witness to the great political, philosophical, and scientific upheavals of the 20th century. In these stirring recollections, Frankl describes how as a young doctor of neurology in prewar Vienna, his disagreements with Freud and Adler led to the development of "the third Viennese School of Psychotherapy", known as logotherapy; recounts his harrowing trials in four concentration camps during the War; and reflects on the celebrity brought by Man's Search for Meaning in 1945.

En El hombre en busca de sentido el psiquiatra Viktor Frankl narra su experiencia como superviviente de los campos de concentración y cómo esto le ayudó a desarrollar la logoterapia, que muchos han considerado la “tercera escuela vienesa de psicoterapia” (las dos primeras escuelas fueron las constituidas por Freud y Adler, respectivamente). Una de las conclusiones que saca Frankl de todas sus vivencias en los campos es la existencia en el hombre de una libertad interior que nadie puede arrebatarle, ni en las circunstancias más difíciles.

Viktor E. Frankl'ın birçok dile çevrilen, dünyada milyonlarca satan bu baş yapıtı; acılarla başa çıkma, kişinin yaşam amacını bulma konusundaki sorgulamalarıyla birlikte okuyucular için unutulmaz bir tecrübe sunuyor. Genç yetişkinlere yönelik bu baskı Frankl'ın toplama kamplarındaki deneyimlerini, özet olarak yazarın 2.

Viktor Frankl estime qu'une des principales causes de névrose est la perte de sens. Il défend la thèse selon laquelle l'inconscient est principalement d'essence spirituelle, car "lorsqu'on trouve un sens aux événements de sa vie, la souffrance diminue et la santé mentale s'améliore". Au-delà de l'instinct de plaisir, la nature profonde de l'Homme le conduit vers la réalisation morale. C'est lors de son expérience des camps de concentration que l'auteur a développé cette interrogation sur le sens.

El doctor Frankl, psiquiatra y escritor, suele preguntar a sus pacientes aquejados de múltiples padecimientos: «¿Por qué no se suicida usted?» Y muchas veces, de las respuestas extrae una orientación para la psicoterapia a aplicar: a éste, lo que le ata a la vida son los hijos; al otro, un talento, una habilidad sin explotar; a un tercero, quizás, sólo unos cuantos recuerdos que merece la pena rescatar del olvido. Tejer estas tenues hebras de vidas rotas en una urdimbre firme, coherente, significativa y responsable es el objeto con que se enfrenta la logoterapia.

During his lifetime, world renowned psychiatrist and Auschwitz survivor Viktor Frankl had an unshakably optimistic outlook on life. He believed that regardless of circumstance, we can all find meaning and fulfilment in our lives, even in the face of great adversity. But how much influence do we have on shaping our own lives? How do we seize opportunities and create a meaningful life? And in doing so, can we still respect the dignity of others and tolerate all views?

Find hope even in these dark times with this rediscovered masterpiece, a companion to his international bestseller Man’s Search for Meaning. Eleven months after he was liberated from the Nazi concentration camps, Viktor E. Frankl held a series of public lectures in Vienna. The psychiatrist...

A pesar de los padecimientos y de la monstruosa brutalidad sufridos, Frankl pudo reconocer que, pese a todo, la vida es digna de ser vivida y que la libertad interior y la dignidad humana son indestructibles. La logoterapia, método psicoterapéutico creado por el propio Frankl, se basa precisamente en la búsqueda del sentido de la existencia, en la que el ser humano asume la responsabilidad ante sí mismo, ante los demás y ante la vida.

In fünf Vorträgen und ausführlichen Gesprächen begründet Viktor E. Frankl seinen wissenschaftlich-therapeutischen Ansatz. Wir leiden vielfach an einem existenziellen Vakuum, das die innere Leere und Sinnlosigkeit massiv werden lässt. Dafür sind zwei Gründe maßgeblich: der Instinkt- und der Traditionsverlust. Weil der Mensch nichts mehr muss und nichts mehr soll, weiß er nicht mehr, was er will. Das Sinnlosigkeitsgefühl schafft noogene Neurosen, Heilung erreicht man nur durch Sinnverwirklichung. Nietzsche hat dies so formuliert: Wer ein Warum zum Leben hat, erträgt jedes Wie.

Il lavoro di Viktor Emil Frankl, uno psichiatra austriaco sopravvissuto ai campi di concentramento tedeschi, è un'analisi di uomini in condizioni insopportabili e inimmaginabili: privati del sonno e del cibo, senza vestiti e medicine adeguati, costretti a lavorare 14 ore al giorno al freddo fuori dal campo ed a subire costantemente la violenza e l'umiliazione delle sentinelle, non conoscendo la sorte dei propri cari e non avendo la possibilità di sopravvivere in questo luogo un giorno in più.

"Til syvende og sist burde vi mennesker ikke spørre hva meningen med livet er, men heller innse at det er oss selv som blir spurt." Dette er én av konklusjonene som Viktor E. Frankl trekker i logoterapien, som han utviklet på bakgrunn av sine tre år som konsentrasjonsleirfange. Ønsket om å få teoriene sine utbredt gav ham meningen med livet, og gjorde ifølge ham selv at han overlevde de umenneskelige vilkårene. I logoterapien blir viljen til mening framhevet som menneskets viktigste drivkraft, i motsetning til Freuds viljen til lyst og Adlers viljen til makt.

Vom Autor des Bestsellers "... trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen" Viktor E. Frankl. "Wer ein Warum zu leben hat, erträgt fast jedes Wie" - nach diesem Motto erforschte Viktor Frankl, wie Sinnerfüllung auch angesichts schwerer Schicksalsschläge möglich ist und Menschen in die Lage versetzt, in Krisenzeiten seelisch heil zu bleiben. Viktor Frankl war ein österreichischer Neurologe und Psychiater. Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs verbrachte er drei Jahre in Auschwitz, Dachau und anderen Konzentrationslagern.

Viktor E. Frankl, cuya primera crisis existencial le sobreviene a una edad tan temprana como la que tenía Mozart cuando compuso su primer minué, fue incapaz de no dejar su impronta en el siglo XX: el siglo del replanteamiento de todos los valores, de la vertiginosa aceleración de todos los procesos y de la decadencia de las costumbres sometidas a una constante manipulación cotidiana.
