About this eBook

Author Storm, Theodor, 1817-1888
Title Auf der Universität Lore
Summary "Auf der Universität Lore" by Theodor Storm is a novella likely written in the late 19th century, set against the backdrop of a German town where young boys and girls interact as they prepare for social events. The story centers on the protagonists, Philipp and his friend Fritz, and their attempts to include a girl named Leonore Beauregard in their dance school group, highlighting the innocence and complexities of childhood relationships as they navigate societal expectations and personal emotions. The opening of the novella introduces us to Philipp, a boy yearning for social interaction with girls, as he attends a local dance school. Without a sister to guide him, he and his friend Fritz plan to invite Leonore, the daughter of a local tailor, to join their group. The narrative captures periodic meetings with Leonore's family, showcasing her delicate beauty and the boys' fascination with her. Through charming and sometimes awkward encounters, the early chapters depict the boys' efforts to bring Leonore into their circle while reflecting on their youthful naivety and desires, setting the stage for the themes of love, class disparity, and self-discovery that will unfold throughout the story.
