Types of Justice in Mihail Sadoveanu’s Hanu Ancuţei

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: The problem of justice seems to be the common theme in Hanu Ancuţei [Ancuţa’s Inn] – \nMihail Sadoveanu‟s book of tales. The world portrayed by Sadoveanu functions according to archaic \nnorms. Justice is made either by the ruler (or by his men), or on one‟s own (provided there is enough \nstrength), in accordance with some ancient laws. The helpless (when the ruler is not on their side) \nhope for divine justice. A coherent system of laws and fair judges, devoted to unbiased justice \n(similar to the German one, mentioned in one of the tales), remain a desideratum in this literary \nmasterpiece.
