James Elishama Smith, often called Shepherd Smith (1801, Glasgow – 1857, Glasgow) was a British journalist and religious writer. Smith studied at Glasgow University. Hearing Edward Irving preach in 1828, he became a millenarian and associated with followers of Joanna Southcott. For a couple of years he became a Christian Israelite under John Wroe. He moved to London in 1832, and his millenarianism turned socialist. He translated Saint-Simon, edited Robert Owen's journal ''Crisis'', and wrote for James Morrison's ''Pioneer''. Smith edited ''The Shepherd'' 1834–5 and 1837–8, and wrote leaders for the ''Penny Satirist''. In 1843 he founded a penny weekly, the ''Family Herald'', which at one point approached a circulation of half a million. ==Works== *''The Anti-Christ, or, Christianity Reformed'', 1833 *''The Divine Drama of History and Civilization'', 1854 *''The Coming Man'', 1873 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「James Elishama Smith」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
