Viktor Emil Frankl, an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist, survived the most deplorable conditions human beings have ever forced other human beings to suffer – the Nazi concentration camps. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four camps, including Auschwitz.
His book, Man’s Search for Meaning, written in 1946, chronicles Frankl’s observations of the diverse responses of prisoners to sustained, inhumane conditions. It also introduces his psychological theory, “logotherapy,” which grew out of his discoveries of lessons for spiritual survival, under even the most dire of circumstances.
From the Greek word “logos”– in English, “meaning” or “reason” – the theory holds that our primary drive in life is to discover and pursue what we find personally meaningful, which thus imparts a reason to live. And as this quote from his book purports, pursuit of that purpose brings even greater fulfillment: “The more one forgets himself–by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love–the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself.”
