Theodore Schroeder (1864–February 10, 1953) was an author who wrote on issues pertaining to freedom of expression.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =University of Michigan )〕 Schroeder challenged the state of freedom of speech in the United States, claiming that the US government may be a tyranny and that the way Americans view their liberties makes Americans hypocrites.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =University of Arkansas )〕 Schroeder was a freelance psychoanalyst who studied the sexual basis of all religious experience. His interest in free speech, as well as his psychosexual theories, led him to study the controversial life of 19th-century free speech and women's rights advocate Ida C. Craddock. Schroeder entered the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1882 to study engineering, then earned a law degree in 1889. ==Legal career== Schroeder practiced law for ten years in Salt Lake City, Utah, working for statehood for Utah.〔 In 1900, Schroeder moved to New York. In 1902, he formed the Free Speech League (a precursor to the American Civil Liberties Union) with Lincoln Steffens and others.〔 Schroeder helped defend his anarchist friend Emma Goldman at her Denver trial.〔 In 1904 Schroeder retired from practicing law and began writing. At the time of Schroeder's death, a friend Kuhn was preparing for publication another book consisting of reprints of articles written by Schroeder, mainly anti-Mormon in nature. The headings of the articles were "Incest in Mormonism," "Polygamy in Congress," "Polygamy and the Constitution," "Polygamy and Inspired Lies," "The Sex-Determinant in Mormon Theology," "Mormonism and Prostitution," "Proxies in Mormon Polygamy," "Was Joseph Smith, 'The Prophet,' an Abortionist?" "Sadism in Mormonism," and "Sanctified Lust."〔 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「Theodore Schroeder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
