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(Malawi)当地原住民与外籍传教士的日常生活场景相册,无具体拍摄日期(s.d.)。据推测由一位传教士拍摄,共收录66张黑白照片,内容涵盖酋长、奴隶、男女、儿童、铁匠、猎人、巫医以及传教士本人的日常生活图景。包括封面背面与封底正面在内的每一页均配有三张照片,所有照片均配有手写墨水标注的说明文字。从说明文字可推断,绝大多数照片拍摄于当时名为尼亚萨兰(Nyasaland)的马拉维地区。结合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,可推断这批照片的拍摄时间不早于1862年。该相册还收录了一张题为"恩戈姆比·萨齐(Ngombi Sazi)——利文斯通(Livingstone)的私交好友"的照片。此相册部分章节设有专属标题,例如"本土产业:古老至极的铁匠行业"、"湖滨产业:渔民"、"本土宗教:巫医"以及"传教工作"。相册的红色布面装帧已褪色,且存在水渍损坏与污渍,书脊仅余一小段尾端,封面题有"甜蜜回忆(Sweet memories)"字样。
