[+] Hoorickx, Reinhard van (O.F.M.). "Schubert's Reminiscences of His Own Works." The Musical Quarterly 60 (July 1974): 373-88.

An inventory of the uses of self-quotation in Schubert's works is provided. In addition to the well-known cases of self-borrowing, Hoorickx cites 33 lesser known compositions in which Schubert reuses his own material. Each individual case of self-borrowing is discussed in enough detail to establish a clear relationship between the borrowed material and its former setting. Hoorickx proves that self-borrowing was a compositional device frequently employed by Schubert.
