Victor of Aveyron
Victor of Aveyron
Victor of Aveyron was a French feral child who was found at the age of around 12. Upon his discovery, he was given to many people to stay with, running away from civilization approximately eight times. Eventually, his case was taken up by a young physician, Jean Marc Gaspard Itard, who worked with the boy for five years and gave him his name, Victor. Itard was interested in determining what Victor could learn. He devised procedures to teach the boy words and recorded his progress. Based on his work with Victor, Itard broke new ground in the education of the developmentally delayed.
