Story
Elf Monate nach seiner Befreiung aus dem Konzentrationslager hielt Viktor E. Frankl im März 1946 eine Reihe von Vorträgen an der Volkshochschule des Wiener Arbeiterbezirks Ottakring. Der Psychologe, der später weltberühmt werden sollte, erklärte seine zentralen Gedanken zu Lebenssinn und Resilienz. Ausgehend von seiner eigenen Maxime "Lebe so, als ob du zum zweiten Male lebtest", entfaltet Frankl seine Grundüberzeugung, dass Menschsein in jeder Lebenslage Auch-anders-Können bedeutet.

Story
Der Roman spielt im 6. Jahrhundert vor Christus in Indien und handelt von einem jungen Brahmanen namens Siddhartha und seinem Freund Govinda. Von seinem Vater und anderen Priestern lernt dieser über die Veden, deren philosophische Gedanken, religiöse Gebote und Anleitungen zu Gebeten und Ritualen. Weil er sieht, wie diese trotz heiliger Waschungen und Gebete zur Reinigung von den Sünden nicht aus dem Samsara entkommen, widmet er sein Leben der Suche nach dem Atman, dem All-einen, das in jedem Menschen ist.

Publisher's summary
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. Bis heute hat das Werk nichts an Aktualität verloren: ... trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen (englischer Titel: Man’s Search For Meaning) wurde in 26 Sprachen übersetzt und weltweit über 12 Millionen Mal verkauft.
In seinem Buch beschrieb Frankl durch welche Phasen der Entmenschlichung die KZ-Häftlinge gehen mussten. Doch trotz all des Leids, das er dort sah und erlebte, kam er zu dem Schluss, dass es selbst an Orten der größten Unmenschlichkeit möglich ist, einen Sinn im Leben zu sehen.
Seine Erinnerungen, die er in diesem Buch festhielt und die über Jahrzehnte Millionen von Menschen bewegten, sollen weder Mitleid erregen noch Anklage erheben. Sie sollen Kraft zum Leben geben.
In diesem Hörbuch erfahren wir:
- wie Viktor Frankl seine Lager-Zeit überwand,
- was gab ihm die Kraft zum Weiterleben,
- um welche Fragen kreisten die Gedanken der Häftlinge,
- welche Bedeutung die Wille zum Überleben hat,
- wie man auch noch unter inhumansten Bedingungen einen Sinn im Leben sehen kann,
- wie Viktor Frankl trotz all der schrecklichen Erfahrungen, die er in den Konzentrationslagern erleben musste, auf Versöhnung statt auf Vergeltung setzte.
... trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen ist ein Zeugnis großer Menschlichkeit, das auch heute alle, die sinnlos leiden müssen, aufzurichten vermag.
Viktor E. Frankl, Dr.med., Dr.phil., 1905-1997, war Professor für Neurologie und Psychiatrie an der Universität Wien und 25 Jahre hindurch Vorstand der Wiener Neurologischen Poliklinik. Die von ihm begründete "Logotherapie/Existenzanalyse" wird auch als "Dritte Wiener Richtung der Psychotherapie" bezeichnet. Frankls 40 Bücher sind in 54 Sprachen erschienen. Die englische Fassung von ... trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen erzielte Millionenauflagen und wurde in die Liste der "zehn einflussreichsten Bücher in Amerika" aufgenommen.
Critic reviews
Dieses meisterhafte Werk gehört zum kostbaren Bestand jener säkularen Literatur, in der die Grundwahrheiten unseres Jahrhunderts manifest werden.

Like the nearly 800 other men imprisoned at Guantanamo, Adayfi didn’t know why he was imprisoned or for how long. He had never seen a skyscraper and couldn’t imagine what the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center looked like, much less how they were destroyed.
