HEINECKEN, CHRISTIAN HEINRICH (1721-1725)

This article appears in Volume V13, Page 216 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HEG-HIG
HEINECKEN, CHRISTIAN HEINRICH (1721-1725) , a child remarkable for precocity of intellect, was born on the 6th of
February
  1721 at
Lubeck
 , where his father was a painter. Able to speak at the age of ten months, by the time he was oae year old he knew by heart the
principal
  incidents in the
Pentateuch
 . At two years of age he had mastered sacred history; at three he was intimately acquainted with history and geography, ancient and
modern
 , sacred and profane, besides being able to speak French and Latin; and in his fourth year he devoted himself to the study of religion and
church
  history. This wonderful precocity was no mere feat of memory, for the youthful savant could reason on and discuss the knowledge he had acquired. Crowds of
people
  flocked to
Lubeck
  to see the wonderful child; and in 1724 he was taken to
Copenhagen
  at the desire of the king of Denmark. On his return to Lubeck
he began to learn writing, but his sickly constitution gave way, and he died on the 22nd of June 1725.
The
Life
 , Deeds, Travels and Death of the Child of Liibeck were published in the following year by his tutor Schoneich. See also Teutsche Bibliothek, xvii., and Memoires de Trevoux (Jan. 1731).
