    If his character is portrayed accurately in the movie, Joseph Merrick possesed more inner beauty than most people walking the streets today -

    from these human beings we learn,that there is much more than the beauty
    from outside.

    ...Leicester when she carried him-as the reason for his bewildering deformityHe also had a growth,which grew from his upper jaw.It resembled a rudimentary tusk or trunk.This was cut away-yet on his work pamphlet there is a suggestion of it in the illustration. He may not have been so sensitive to being called the elephant man himself,because it after all gave him a good living,&for the reasons I've mentioned,as us.But I certainly agree with you, &I hope one day he'll only be called by his name.

    Wait. I just have one question. Why was he called "The Elephant Man" if he looks nothing like an elephant? I see it as kind of insulting. Poor man. If only empathy was a trait people had. If I could, I'd thank Frederick Treves for being a good soul to Joseph.

    A real pity, that in the opening minutes of this documentary, the hospital archivist and museum narrator choose to still use the shameful and unkind reference ‘elephant man’. Following Merricks death in 1890 both medical and social science developed at a fast and very welcome pace. Therefore, it now seems unacceptable to me that Joseph Merrick still remains effectively an exhibit. All the available and retrievable evidence has been obtained, documented and recorded, by using modern day computerised systems. I am a retired Registered Nurse of 40 years NHS Service, so I accept that studying the bodily remains of the long dead can be of great clinical value, but think it’s high time now to give Joseph a much belated Christian burial.
    To his new found friends and acquaintances (including Sir Frederick Treves and HRH Princess Alexandra) it is said he frequently testified to his Christian Belief and his unending love for his deceased mother. I hope, that some day soon Joseph Carey Merrick can be moved from the said medical school and laid to rest in Leicestershire, in the vicinity of his mother Mary Jane Potterton Merrick,

    Joseph himself,in his short autobiography, describes parts of his body affected by his condition as resembling an elephant - the rough loose skin, even the colour in parts,his legs,etc.It is indeed unfortunate that the name has stuck with him even over his real name, just because of the 2-3 years he workedin England(where he was treated with respect&kindness),& the continent.He also believed in the idea of maternal impression - that his mother was frightened by an elephant during a parade in ...
