Resumo

Taboos, since the dawn of time, have been used by human societies to regulate behavior and discourse.

The article discusses taboo adherence and taboo violation in respect of death, madness, sex, and incest in Europhone African literature and concludes that African writers largely display a certain dynamism in their reaction to taboos.
