Wilhelm und Jacob Grimms Sammlungen von Sagen und Märchen kennt wohl jede und jeder. Zumindest gehört hat man schon davon. Aber, wer kennt schon die „Gesta Romanorum“ (Die Taten der Römer)? Nur so viel: Es ist eine in Latein geschriebene Sammlung von „Exempeln“ aus dem Mittelalter. Ins Deutsche übersetzt hat sie 1842 ein gewisser Johann Georg Theodor Graesse, seines Zeichens Privatbibliothekar des sächsischen Königs Friedrich August II. Da gibt es eine merkwürdige Geschichte. Der ungarische König Conan belagert ein Schloss. Die Schlossherrin erkennt von der Mauer herab, dass dieser Ungarnkönig ein sehr schöner Mann ist. Heimlich schreibt sie ihm, falls er sie zur Frau nähme, würde sie ihm die Burg übergeben. Der Ungar lässt sich darauf ein. Die Ehe wird vollzogen. Die bereits vorhandenen Kinder der Frau fliehen. Das war der erste Tag. Was aber tat der grausame Magyare schon am zweiten Tag? Er übergab die frisch angetraute Frau zwölf Ungarn, „um sie öffentlich zu beschimpfen“, und schon am dritten Tag „ließ er sie am ganzen Körper bis an die Kehle durchbohren“. Die Begründung? „Ein solches Weib, die vor fleischlicher Lust ihre eigene Stadt ins Verderben gestürzt hat, muss auch einen solchen Ehemann bekommen“. Bei der Lektüre war ich bisher immer erzürnt über die Grausamkeit, mit der sexuelles Begehren von Frauen bestraft wurde. Männern ist dies ja in den meisten Sagen und Märchen nicht nur gestattet, Frauen sind dann auch noch der Preis für Heldentaten. Wie es heute ist, mag jede und jeder selbst bewerten. Die ganze Sache schien mir aber gerade deshalb Anfang März im Umfeld des Frauentages zitierenswert. Und dann kam uns allen etwas dazwischen: die Ukraine und die Krim. Die Geschichte jedoch blieb mir im Kopf! Wie das?
Mir fielen plötzlich die vielen „Freierinnen“ ein, die sich der sie „belagernden“ EU und NATO willig ergeben hatten oder das noch machen wollten. Ist doch geil – oder? An Folgen malte man sich die schönsten Beglückungen aus. Nun drohte nach dem Vollzug der Vermählung nicht gleich der qualvolle Tod. Die Beschimpfungen blieben aber oft nicht aus. Die Griechinnen und Griechen, Portugiesen und Portugiesinnen und manch andere Völkerschaften können das Lied davon singen. In der Ukraine wollte man es nicht hören. Und hätte man die Finger von der Liaison gelassen, wie es einige durchzusetzen versuchten, sollte man hinterher jammern wie die stolze Prinzessin im Märchen vom König Drosselbart: „Ach hätte ich ihn doch genommen, den König Drosselbart!“ Vom Märchen wissen wir, dass sie ihn schließlich „genommen“ hatte – nicht freiwillig und zunächst unter Vorspielung falscher Tatsachen. Dieses Märchen hat aber ein „happy-end“. Der die Braut zunächst zum Betteln gezwungen und bösen Schikanen ausgesetzt hatte, entpuppte sich am Ende doch als der verschmähte König und späte Glücksbringer. Wer glaubt, dass es auch heute so enden könnte, … siehe oben. Oder es wäre anzunehmen, dass Stolz und freier Wille einer Seite zuvor gebrochen werden müssten, ehe das Glück einkehren könnte. Dass im Fall der Ukraine gleich zwei Freier konkurrierend auftauchten, machte die Sache nicht besser und ließ kaum alternative Perspektiven erhoffen. Die Wirklichkeit enteilte ohnehin der Analogie zu Märchen und Sagen. Wie sie sich am Tag des Erscheinens dieser Kolumne darstellen wird, ist noch nicht abzusehen. Den Freiern ist die Braut nicht mehr wert als ein Regenwurm, den man in zwei weiterlebende Hälften zerteilen kann. An die Stelle ästhetischer Sprache tritt im Kampf um die Hälften die Brutalität der Schmähreden. Durch die Sprachrohre dröhnen die gegenseitigen, vergangen geglaubten Schuldzuweisungen. Die Welt aber hat Angst. Hundert Jahre nach Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges und fünfundsiebzig Jahre nach dem Aufflammen des größten Weltenbrandes aller Zeiten, des Zweiten Weltkrieges, geht die Furcht vor neuerlicher Wiederholung um. Moment mal! „Ausbruch“? „Aufflammen“? Nein, das gilt für Kriege nicht. Sie werden noch immer von Menschen gemacht. Märchen und Sagen sind hierzu übrigens sehr präzise.
