Response Group Dos y Frankl

Both Nietzsche and Marx accept that urban areas are a vital part of modern intellectual, social, and economic life. There are bad sides and pitfalls but in general both authors accept it as a necessity of modern existence. Cities bring people together and the sharing of knowledge and new ideas becomes widespread far quicker.

"Knowledge through contradiction" in a way fits into Frankl's logotherapy. Frankl proposes that one should think of the opposite in order to get through ones neurological disorder. For example if one were unable to sleep they should try with all their might to stay up as long as possible. This in essence is "knowledge through contradiction." They contradict their mental condition in order to get over it.
