Noble savage

Noble Savage is an idea used in literature and art to describe people who are uncivilized or live outside of modern society but are seen as inherently good or innocent. The idea of the Noble Savage was popular in the 1800s, when authors and poets often used it to reflect on the idea of civilized life. They believed that the simple and natural way of living showed the purity and goodness of natural people.
