The story of the character is the narrative of a tragic destiny, although at the same time its existence can be perceived as a remarkable example of resilience and discovery of meaning for life, even in the face of absurdity. We will study these questions using extracts from the and self- transcendence inseparable from the notion of resilience, the central theme of aforementioned production, analyzing them in the light of Votertor Frankl's ontherapy and the ontology of dimensionality, in order to discuss the concepts of transcendentality, self-detachment this work.
