N2  - Robert Schumann was one of the most enigmatic figures of his age. Extraordinarily gifted in both music and literature, his fame was based both on his skill as a music critic and as a composer. His life was controversial-from the tempestuous courtship of his future wife, Clara Wieck, to his tragic incarceration in the mental asylum where he died.
