Viktor Emil Frankl (26 mars 1905 – 2 septembre 1997) était un psychiatre autrichien juif, fondateur de la logothérapie, une école de psychothérapie qui décrit la recherche du sens de la vie comme la force motivationnelle humaine centrale [1].
La logothérapie fait partie des théories de la psychologie existentielle et humaniste [2]. Viktor Frankl est également connu pour son livre « Découvrir un sens à sa vie avec la logothérapie » ainsi que pour son ouvrage majeur « Le Homme en recherche de sens » [1].
Selon ses travaux, le sens de la vie est un concept fondamental dans l’existence humaine, et ce sens peut être trouvé dans des activités créatrices, en aimant quelqu’un ou en s’engageant dans une cause plus grande que soi [3].
Tout au long de sa vie, Frankl a fait face à des épreuves difficiles, notamment la perte de membres de sa famille pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale [4].
