Lectures which Viktor Frankl delivered in 1946, written after his release from a Nazi concentration camp. Frankl writes: "the question can no longer be 'What can I expect from life?' but can now only be 'What does life expert of me?' What tasks in life is waiting for me?
Abstract:
-
According to Frankl, "the question of the meaning of life is not asked in the right way, if asked in the way it is generally asked: it is not we who are permitted to ask about the meaning of life -- it is life that asks the questions, directs questions at us -- we are the one who are questioned! We are the ones who must answers, must give answers to the constant, hourl;y question of life, to the essential 'life questions.'"
