Thou Shalt Love Thy Sister. Sibling Love, Religious Upbringings and Taboo Topics in Raduan Nassar’s Ancient Tillage and Mihail Victus’ toate păcatele noastre

Summary/Abstract: No matter how desperately society tries to conceal them, taboo topics are still visible in people’s lives and especially in literature. This study aims to make a comparison between two male characters, André from Raduan Nassar’s Ancient Tillage and Horia from Mihail Victus’ toate păcatele noastre. By discussing their religious background and their (sometimes incestuous) feelings towards their sisters, this study shall demonstrate that, although they come from distinctive pieces of literature, André and Horia share a similar experience.
