Ülikoolis tutvus ta Friedrich Wieckiga, kelle juures hakkas harjutama klaverit. Schumanni õpingud jätkusid Heidelbergi ülikoolis. Schumanni üks suurimaid mõjutajaid oli tema isa August Schumann, kes julgustas tema muusikalisi ja kirjanduslikke õpinguid. Kuna Schumanni isa oli raamatukaupmees, kirjastaja ja novelist, sai ta kirjandusteostega tuttavaks juba väga noores eas ning seepärast on teda ka kirjandus paljuski mõjutanud. Kirjandus abistas edaspidi alati ta muusikalist fantaasiat ja rida muusikapalu sündiski kirjandusteostest saadud inspiratsioonil. Samuti innustas Schumanni klaveriõpinguid kuulus viiulimängja Nicolo Paganini. Ta tahtis mängida klaverit sama hästi kui Paganini mängis viiulit. 3.

By the Age of Enlightenment, literature had grown in importance, and from the early 1830s, Russian literature underwent an astounding golden age in poetry, prose and drama.

Tema kolm teist last oli Marie-Alexandrine Dumas(05.03.1831), Micaëlla-Clélie-Josepha-Élisabeth Cordier(1860) ja Henry Bauer. Kui Dumas'l oli ühel hetkel tekkinud liig palju võlglasi, liig palju armukesi ja liig palju vabariiklaslikke mõtteid, et konservatiivsemale osale publikust endiselt meele järgi olla, leidis ta väljapääsu reisimises, pannes kirja "Reisimuljed" ja "Memuaarid" (trükis 1852-1855).

Selles romaanis kujutab Gailit sõja traagika kõrval ka anekdootlikke sündmusi ja sõduri huumorit.
