资源简介:
Photo album of scenes of daily life of natives and a foreign missionary in Malawi, [s.d.]. Appeared to have been taken by a missionary, it has 66 images of the daily life of chiefs, slaves, men, women, children, iron workers, hunters, witch doctors and the missionary himself. Each page including the back of the front cover and the front of the back cover has three photographs, all in black and white. All photographs have captions in ink. It appears from the captions that most of the photographs were taken in Malawi which was then known Nysaland. It can be implied from the presence of a photograph of the grave site of Bishop MacKenzie (1825-1862) in an overgrown jungle that these photographs were not taken before 1862. It also includes a photograph of "Ngombi Sazi, Livingstone's personal friend". Some sections of this album have headings such as "A native industry: exceedingly ancient ironworkers", 'A Lakeshore industry of fishermen", "Native religion: the witch doctor", and "Missionary work". Its red cloth binding is faded and appears to be water damaged and soiled. Its spine is missing except for a small tail. Its cover has the title "Sweet memories".

马拉维本土居民与外籍传教士日常生活场景相册(无确切拍摄日期)。该相册疑似由一名传教士摄制,共计收录66幅影像,记录了酋长、奴隶、男女老少、铁匠、猎人、巫医(witch doctor)以及传教士本人的日常生活场景。每一页(含前衬页背面与后衬页正面)均配有三张黑白照片,所有照片均配有手写墨水标注的题注。根据照片的题注推断,绝大多数影像拍摄于当时被称为Nysaland的马拉维地区。从一张拍摄于茂密丛林中的麦肯齐主教(Bishop MacKenzie,1825-1862)墓地的照片可推断,本相册的拍摄时间不会早于1862年。此外,相册还收录了一张标注为"恩戈姆比·萨齐(Ngombi Sazi,利文斯通(Livingstone)的私人友人)"的照片。本相册的部分板块设有主题标题,例如"本土手工业:传承悠久的铁匠""湖滨渔业:渔民生计""本土宗教:巫医"以及"传教事业"。该相册采用红色布料装帧,现已褪色,且存在水渍损坏与污渍。除书脊尾端的一小段外,其余书脊均已缺失。封面印有标题"甜蜜回忆(Sweet memories)"。
