Maybe: a man with a clear and immediate understanding of the present...

A man who is "the most friendly and amenable creatures in existance" (that's from the book, is that cheating?). Or: A crazy but incredibly wise man forever haunted by King Charles' attempt to get into his memorial!

Mr. Dick is a man who is clearly not what he seems, nor is he as intelligent as we are first led to believe. However, he is one of the most kind-hearted individuals in David Copperfield. His "memorial" is somewhat of a fabricated excuse to continue to stay close to Aunt Betsey.

He is the child in David, the husband that Aunt Betsey desires, a blunt, pragmatic yet sensitive creature, whose apparent insanity and simple wisdom serves as an irony to reveal the insanity of the suppossed genteel class

A later literary parallel would be "Being There" by Jerzy Kozinsky.
