I Want talk about Viktor Frakl
Victor Frank was born in Vienna on 26
march 1905.
he studied medicine at the University of
Vienna and later specialized in neurology and psychiatry, concentrating on the
topics of depression and suicide. His early development was influenced by his
contacts with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler
Frankl married in 1942, but in September
of that year, he, his wife, his father, mother, and brother, were all arrested
and brought to the concentration camp at Theresienstadt in Bohemia. His
father died there of starvation. His mother, brother and his wife died at
Auschwitz
In April of 1945, Frankl’s camp
was liberated, and he returned to Vienna, only to discover the deaths of his
loved ones
Liberated after three years in
concentration camps, Frankl returned to Vienna. During 1945 he wrote his
world-famous book entitled Man's Search for Meaning In this book, he
described the life of an ordinary concentration camp inmate from the objective
perspective of a psychiatrist, throughout his ordeal, he could not help but see
that, among those given a chance for survival, it was those who held on to a
vision of the future -- whether it be a significant task before them, or a
return to their loved ones -- that were most likely to survive their suffering.
He developed a new therapy, known as logotherapy, which focuses on searching
for a higher sense of meaning for human life.
