Schumann's Friends & Followers

16.10.2016 - 10:45 Uhr bis 16:45 Uhr

Schumann, his friends and followers: a literary world and its legacies

Schumann was inspired by literature throughout his life, and saw no real divide between the world of letters and the world of music. His writings, both musical and literary, inspired a generation of creative intellectuals in Germany and beyond, and engendered a wealth of literary responses in turn. This study day is an opportunity to explore the cultural worlds and influence of musical friends and follower such as Mendelssohn and Brahms; literary contemporaries such as Heine and Rückert; and those well beyond Schumann’s time and place who have continued the resonance of his ideas down to our own time.

Presented in association with the Open University's Literature & Music Research Group
