Edward Payson Evans (December 8, 1831 – March 6, 1917) was a United States scholar and linguist. ==Biography== His father was a Welsh Presbyterian clergyman, who came to the United States in 1842. Evans graduated from the University of Michigan in 1854, and then taught at an academy in Hernando, Mississippi, for one year. He then became a professor at Carroll University (then Carroll College) in Waukesha, Wisconsin. From 1858 to 1862, he traveled abroad, and studied at the universities of Göttingen, Berlin and Munich. On his return to the United States, he became professor of modern languages in the University of Michigan. In 1868, he married Elizabeth Edson Gibson. In 1870, Evans resigned his position at Michigan and went abroad again, where he gathered materials for a history of German literature, and also made a specialty of oriental languages. He became a fixture at the Royal Library in Munich, and joined the staff of the ''Allgemeine Zeitung'' in Munich in 1884. When World War I broke out in 1914, he returned to the United States, where he lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts and New York City. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edward Payson Evans」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
