Description
Dr. Dida Kimor is going to talk about “Existential Philosophical Ideas in Frankl’s Logotherapy
Frankl’s Logotherapy and especially his Logo-Philosophy is closely related to the “Zeit Geist” (The spirit of his time). In his writings, he dialogues mostly with philosophers of his time, mainly by referring to statements of their views, not necessarily mentioning them by name.

In order to deepen our understanding of Frankl’s view in terms of his Philosophy of Life and Concept of Man, it is important to decipher the influences of these philosophical ideas, such as Existentialism. Thus, the aim of this presentation is to shed light on the ideas that were in the air when Frankl’s ideas were developed, and at the same time to emphasize his unique innovative approach.
