Pădurea Spânzuraţilor or the Multifaceted Dimension of Love

Summary/Abstract: The article debates the dimension of love in Rebreanu’s novel Pădurea Spânzuraţilor [Forest of the Hanged], love seen as rapprochement, reunion between two peoples, and a genuine phenomenon of cultural exchange. Thus the image of the Hungarian people is shaped due to Romanian literary works created with Hungarian characters. The multi-faceted approach of love in the novel comprises: protecting love, paternal love, Christian love, and universal love (meeting Ilona). Eros overcomes the novel’s tragic tune, faith and universal love between two people of different nationalities conquer it into eternity.
