| Summary | "Verflossene Stunden: Novelle" by Sophie Junghans is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The novella introduces us to Margarethe, a young woman of noble lineage navigating her impoverished circumstances and familial expectations. The story centers around her decision to become a governess in England, revealing her struggle with societal norms and personal ambitions. At the start of the novella, we see Margarethe's conversation with her mother, who reluctantly encourages her to seek employment, highlighting the family's financial struggles. Margarethe is torn between her duty to her mother and the desire for independence. A significant emotional moment occurs when Margarethe reveals her intent to write to a prospective employer, Mrs. Gray, while simultaneously managing her mother's expectations and the truths of their current situation. This opening portion sets the stage for Margarethe's journey as she grapples with personal sacrifice, familial loyalty, and the societal pressures of her time.
