Mulford Quickert Sibley (1912–1989) was a professor of political science at the University of Minnesota. He was a controversial figure because he advocated positions such as socialism and pacifism at a time (the McCarthy era of the 1950s) when these were highly unpopular.〔(Biographical Sketch of Mulford Q. Sibley )〕 A prolific author and essayist, Sibley wrote extensively on pacifism, utopianism, and civil disobedience. A collection of his papers at the Minnesota Historical Society includes correspondence, literary works, and teaching materials. 〔(Mulford Quickert Sibley papers )〕 Both in his classes and at political rallies, Sibley often railed against the Vietnam War. The University of Minnesota retains an inventory of the Sibley papers.〔(Inventory of the Mulford Quickert Sibley papers, 1948, 1953-1968 )〕 ==Anecdotes== "I'd seen political science professor Mulford Q. Sibley make quite a splash at the University of Minnesota when he gave his lectures in a huge barn. One day he’d be Plato, another day, someone else. Seventeen hundred people would show up to those lectures!"〔(Under the Big Top )〕 Garrison Keillor picked up the habit of wearing red socks from Sibley.〔( Keillor spins more tales from Lake Wobegon )〕 In his autobiography, baseball star Dave Winfield mentions professor Sibley as having an influence on his life. In the late 60's Sibley was a visiting professor at Harpur College, SUNY Binghamton. 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「Mulford Q. Sibley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
