From early nineteen-century, because the changing society and the rising new thoughts, both promote the artists to search for the most suitable way to create their works in order to express individual idea. The combinations of different types of art become the major creations in this time. For the same reason, composers make the new development in form and content of their music. One of the most common ways is the combination of music and literature. From the personal diary, letters, and articles writing of Schumann, we find that contents and compositional technique of music always integrate the features of German literary author Jean Paul. This research concentrate on the piano piece Papillons, which Schumann linked it to the novel Flegeljahre of Jean Paul many times. Attempts will make to explain how Schumann uses the techniques of Jean Paul¡¦s writing into his own music. This research includes three chapters. The first chapter introduces the life and literary thinking of Jean Paul, describe how he rise in the German literary circles, and his ideology and writing style. The second chapter presents the literary background of Schumann, the influence of contemporary thoughts, and the inspiration and influence from Jean Paul. The last chapter should analyze the relationship between Jean Paul¡¦s novel Flegeljahre and Schumann¡¦s Papillons, to observe how the literary ideas expressed by music.
