CLAUDE BRUAIRE'S PHILOSOPHY AND VIKTOR FRANKL'S PSYCHOTHERAPY: A DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE LOGIC OF HUMAN EXISTENCE AND LOGOTHERAPY

Abstract

This article intends to explain about human existence according to two thinkers, in two different areas of knowledge. First, the conception of the logic of human existence according to the philosophy of Claude Bruaire. On the other hand, existential analysis and logotherapy, that is, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Viktor Emil Frankl. Initially, the biographical context of each of the aforementioned doctors is explained, and then the two points of view, on the same topic, are discussed. With the two theses exposed, it is possible to compare and explore points of congruence or divergence, seeking to understand a possible complementation or raise new possibilities from the proposed theoretical colloquium. Subjects that address human complexity, in all dimensions, are always relevant subjects, as it is an object of study that seems to be inexhaustible. And when it comes to existence, it is important to make the most of it. And about the existential period, the more solid it is, the greater its relevance and legacy. Due to the consistency of the theme, the present work leans towards psycho-philosophical speculation leading to a reflection on the meaning of human life.
