Abstract
This article examines the use of references to specifically Christian texts in the White Rose pamphlets. It situates them in their original context, and argues that, whilst the pamphlets of the White Rose are not framed as theological works, the intended audience includes those who are familiar with such a cultural perspective, as is the case with references to other literary and philosophical works. The paper also examines the opinions of the philologist Richard Harder on the pamphlets in his analysis undertaken for the Gestapo, suggesting that in Harder they found the kind of reader at which they were aimed.
