Child isolated in the forest

[Jonathan]

I was told a story of a child who, from a young age, was isolated in the forest as a social experiment, some time ago (18-19th century) The person telling me the story had no idea of the results, or really anything else, other the vague inkling that the experimenter might have been Goethe. Anyone know about this or have any links to information? Feel free, if you are aware of this, to add your personal insight and opinion.
