Özet
Luise Rinser, one of the most influential and controversial writers of the postwar period, was known for her political satire and initially published stories with religious themes wherein the choices of the characters are called into question. In Die rote Katze (The Red Cat, 1956), for example, a boy kills a cat whose existence demands a share of the food in order to protect his famine-stricken family. Meanwhile, in Ein Bundel wei3er Narzissen (A Bunch of White Daffodils, 1956), on the other hand, we observe a dying woman who, through a fictional dialogue with an angel, reveals herself to be a devoted mother and wife. What these two narrative figures have in common is that they act unflinchingly in emergencies, not based on rigid traditional values but on acutely necessary considerations. This study examines and discusses the value orientation of Rinser's two narrative figures. The perception of values is explained in particular from the perspective of Reinhard Mokrosch, who attempts a further religious classification of these values by classifying them into three categories, namely Christian denominational religious values (love of one's neighbor, love of one's enemy, nonviolence, and pacifism), general religious values (respect for life, human dignity, and fellow human beings), and inter-religious values (compassion, charity, partnership, respect, consideration, tolerance, and love).
