The book whose title I sought in an earlier message is:

	Peter Ostwald, SCHUMANN: The Inner Voices of a Musical Genius,
		       New England Universities Press, 1985, $24 or $28.

It's a "psychobiography" of Robert Schumann.  During a discussion of
homoerotic writings of Schumann, Ostwald alludes in a footnote to
homoerotic poetry and other texts by Franz Peter Schubert.  All of
the documents in question are accessible to the public, but this
may be a fairly recent state of affairs.

So far I've failed to find a copy of the book.  When I do, I'll post
the relevant passages.
