Description: This websites contains the Lindsay scrapbook (the name D. Lindsay is written on the front flyleaf) which is comprised of fifty-two full color chromolithographs-- caricatures of London celebrities, politicians, and royalty-- that were all executed by the well-known French artist “Faustin” (Faustin Betbeder) and appeared in the London Figaro. Most of these caricatures measure 6 inches x 2 ¾ inches. They were printed separately from the magazine and tipped into the issue, and then clipped out and pasted into this scrapbook. The earliest caricature is dated October 22, 1873, and the last one, December 23, 1874. Mixed in are other series that ran in Figaro, including Figaro Photographs of the Day. Included at the end are some 19th century family photos, invitations, cards, and engravings. NOTE: This archived site contains external links beyond the scope of this crawl.

Title: Literary Map of Africa - Ohio State University Libraries

URL: https://library.osu.edu/literary-map-of-africa/

Description: The Literary Map of Africa is a bio-bibliographical database, designed to be a comprehensive research and information tool on African literature. It does not focus on selected authors or national / regional litteratures, nor does it follow the sometimes rigid North & sub-Saharan Africa divide; instead, the database seeks to cover the whole continent. This wider scope makes it possible for writers from different regions and countries, with varied histories and cultures, and who produce works in diverse African and European languages to be represented in one project. One objective this project hopes to fulfill is to include as many emerging writers as possible, especially those based in Africa. Many in this category of creative writers do not have a readership beyond their national boundaries and are therefore hardly represented in many bibliographies and encyclopedias.
