Abstract
The current piece of youth literature „Marienbilder“ by Tamara Bach as a subject in German class is addressed in this article, starting with the question which genre – novella or novel – the text belongs to. Also, supplementary didactical material will be provided. First, the focus is on the narrative construction, as the reader is being presented with five equally valid versions of events. The way in which this specific fashion of narrating helps solving the ethical questions approached in the text in an aesthetic manner is further presented. In addition to this identity-orientated approach to literature education, features of intertextual and cross-medial narrating are elaborated and commented upon, in the following section of the presentation. In conclusion, the approach is systematized considering the processes of literary education.
