Description Kaspar is loosely based on the story of Kaspar Hauser. Kaspare was "raised in a dark hole (and) at 17 he wandered into a 1824 German town knowing only a single sentence and became a scientific curiosity: a nearly-adult human without language and external influences, a tabula rasa upon which society and its scientific teachers could write with impunity."
