| Summary | "Chambers's Edinburgh Journal, No. 446" by Various is a periodical publication likely issued in the mid-19th century. This edition explores various topics, including observations on human behavior and moral nature, as exemplified through accounts of so-called wild children from both Europe and India. It delves into themes of civilization versus savagery and the influences of environment on upbringing. The opening of this particular issue begins with a discussion on the fascination surrounding wild children—individuals raised in nature, often without human contact. The narrative emphasizes several historical examples, detailing their behavior, intelligence, and eventual interactions with civilization. Accounts include children found living with wolves, showcasing their unique characteristics and challenges in adaptation. The text expresses a strong interest in understanding the implications of these cases on human development and moral understanding, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of societal norms and individual potential.
