On Whit Monday 1828 a strange youth, barely able to speak and
hardly able to walk appeared in Nuremberg. This new case of a 'wild
man' excited widespread curiosity, and many prominent figures
wanted to test their pedagogical and medical theories on such a
promising subject. Who was he? Was he, as many claimed, the
rightful heir to the Grand Duchy of Baden, or was he simply an
ingenious fraud? This book examines the many ramifications of this
fascinating case, and offers many insights into the social,
political and intellectual life of Biedermeier Germany.
