Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition in English of Frankl's classic work, which was later titled Man's Search For Meaning in 1962. Octavo, original cloth. Boldly signed by Holocaust survivor and Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel on the front free endpaper. Both Frankl and Wiesel survived Auschwitz, and both spent the rest of their lives transmuting that surv…ival into something the world needed. Frankl arrived at Auschwitz in 1944 as a thirty-nine-year-old Viennese neurologist and psychiatrist with a nearly complete manuscript of what would become logotherapy hidden in the lining of his coat. (It was confiscated and destroyed; he reconstructed it after the war.) Wiesel arrived a few months earlier, at fifteen, and was separated at the selection ramp from his mother and youngest sister, whom he never saw again. The age difference matters enormously. Frankl entered the camps with an intellectual apparatus already in place, and used the experience to test it under the most extreme conditions imaginable. Wiesel was formed by them. Man's Search for Meaning, published in 1946, is fundamentally a constructive document â" Auschwitz becomes the proving ground for Frankl's thesis that meaning can be discovered even in unspeakable suffering, and that the human will to meaning is more primary than Freud's pleasure principle or Adler's will to power. Night is a work of refusal. Wiesel resisted any framing that would let the reader close the wound â" no theodicy, no consolation, no redemptive arc. The most famous passage in the book, in which a child is hanged and a voice asks where God is, ends not with an answer but with an answer that is also an indictment. This is the deep tension between them. Frankl is the great affirmer â" even Auschwitz, he insists, cannot strip a person of the last human freedom, the freedom to choose one's attitude toward one's suffering. Wiesel is the great refuser â" to find Auschwitz meaningful, in any redemptive sense, risks a betrayal of the dead. And yet both men insisted, equally fiercely, on the obligation to bear witness, on memory as a moral category, and on the irreducible dignity of the human person. Wiesel's 1986 Nobel lecture, with its insistence that silence always serves the tormentor and never the tormented, is in some deep sense kin to Frankl's project, even though Frankl reaches for therapy and Wiesel for literature and theology. There is also a quieter connection between them as both were rooted, before the war, in Central European Jewish intellectual life â" Frankl in Vienna's psychoanalytic culture, against which he positioned himself; Wiesel in the Hasidic world of Sighet, which he later honored at length in Souls on Fire and elsewhere. Each carried a destroyed world inside him and each refused to let it disappear. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Translated by Ilse Lasch. Preface by Gordon Allport. Originally published in German, in 1946 under the name Ein Psycholog erlecbt das konzentrationslager. Rare and desirable signed by this legendary survivor, leader and award-winning writer. Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of others he treated later in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. Frankl's theory-known as logotherapy, from the Greek word logos ("meaning")-holds that our primary drive in life is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but the discovery and pursuit of what we personally find meaningful. At the time of Frankl's death, Man's Search for Meaning had sold more than 10 million copies in twenty-four languages. A 1991 reader survey for the Library of Congress that asked readers to name a "book that made a difference in your life" found Man's Search for Meaning among the ten most influential books in America. "An enduring work of survival literature" (New York Times).

Contact seller5-star sellerdj. First American Edition. First American and first English language edition, first printing. Signed by Viktor Frankl on the front free endpaper and dated Detroit, Oct. 17 1960, spaced to accommodate Charles Bruce Lee's name below. xii, [ii], 111 pp. Bound in publisher's dark crimson cloth-affect paper-covered boards stamped in… blind on front board and lettered in white on spine. Near Fine with light rubbing, light foxing to edges, and faint offsetting and foxing to endpapers. Slight ripple to terminals. In an About Very Good unclipped dust jacket with sunned spine panel, light foxing, and dampstaining (mainly visible on back panel and verso). A rare signed first US edition of the Holocaust memoir better known as Man's Search for Meaning. In October 1960 Viktor Frankl was in Detroit on one of his many lecture tours, delivering five lectures on five successive evenings at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul, beginning with "The Meaning of Life" on October 16, the date Charles Bruce Lee wrote his name in this book. The following night, when Frankl lectured on "The Meaning of Suffering," Lee obtained the renowned psychiatrist's signature. Frankl's writing would have had a particular poignancy for Lee, a Black biologist with painful memories of his wartime service as an intelligence clerk in the segregated Army. "My first night on a Jim Crow train car was like Schindler's List," he later said in an interview with Alan Govenar. "We rode in wooden cars behind the engine with the upper windows open. The coal dust blew in. I was in a car that was built to hold eighty people, but there must have been over one hundred fifty men jammed into it." Lee grew up in Buffalo, New York, earned a bachelor's degree from the Tuskegee Institute, and finished up with a Ph.D in malacology, the study of invertebrate zoology, from the University of Michigan. He worked for the government for 34 years, spending ten years as the chief of microbiology of the Detroit Arsenal and directing research on the fungal deterioration of ordnance materials. Like Viktor Frankl, he lived past the age of 90. An interesting association between two men who successfully overcame considerable adversity. Signed.
