As New. 0684822962. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request *** – – *** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-TEXT PRISTINE 272 pages. From "Booklist": "Kaspar Hauser appeared on the streets of Nuremberg in 1828; apparently, he had been confined in a dimly lit dungeon for most of his 16 years. Unlike Victor the 'wild child' of Aveyron, Hauser had normal intelligence and soon showed rapid progress in language acquisition. Why had he been confined? For some, it was because he was a rejected child of German royalty. That suspicion was heightened when Hauser was mysteriously murdered in 1832. Masson, who has written extensively on psychotherapy, provides the first complete English translation of Anselm van Feuerbach's classic examination of the Hauser mystery. In addition, Masson's own essay furnishes some original and tantalizing insights. His speculations on Hauser's significance regarding human nature, language acquisition, and child-rearing practices are valuable food for thought. Ultimately, of course, the mystery of Hauser remains just that, so the fascination and attraction of Hauser and other so-called feral children are bound to continue."--with a bonus offer--
