Autorenporträt
Horace Fletcher (1849-1919), commonly referred to as the 'Great Masticator', was an American health food enthusiast and author who became an integral part of the early 20th century's health and wellness movements. His contributions extended beyond simple dietary advice, delving into the realms of mental health and personal development. In his celebrated work, 'Menticulture; or, the A-B-C of True Living' (1895), Fletcher explored the philosophy of mental hygiene, focusing on the eradication of negative emotions, which he believed were the root causes of societal ills and personal unhappiness. His literary style mixed accessibility with a persuasive fervor, embodying the scientific and self-improvement zeitgeist of his era. Inspired by personal health challenges and transformative experiences, Fletcher's writings promulgated his famous 'Fletcherism', which emphasized thorough mastication as a route to good health and espoused the mental discipline necessary for a virtuous and contented life. His work within the context of the Progressive Era's push for social and personal reform has provided a foundation for future holistic health philosophies and continues to be referenced in discussions on dietary and mental well-being practices. Fletcher's legacy, while perhaps scientifically outdated, remains as a historical artifact of America's evolving relationship with health and self-care.
