Abstract In early colonial Lagos, struggles over race, place and identity were played out over ownership of land, and ended with the displacement of sections of the indigenous population. “Africa for the Africans” combines texts and maps to narrate the history of 1860s Lagos. This article demonstrates how, with Geographic Information Systems (GIS), European colonial maps can be used to analyze the significance of changing urban spatial relationships in 1860s Lagos. Though much of this analysis employs GIS, it also leans heavily on other tools for making timelines, story maps and vector diagrams. This process of creating digital representations of the past also has pedagogical applications, as these methods can be extended to the classroom for undergraduates learning about African history.
摘要在早期殖民时期的拉各斯,围绕种族、地点和身份的斗争围绕着土地所有权展开,最终导致部分土著人口流离失所。《非洲人的非洲》结合文本和地图讲述了19世纪60年代拉各斯的历史。本文展示了如何利用地理信息系统(GIS),使用欧洲殖民地图来分析19世纪60年代拉各斯城市空间关系变化的意义。尽管这种分析大多使用GIS,但它也严重依赖于其他工具来制作时间线、故事图和矢量图。这种创建过去数字表示的过程也有教学应用,因为这些方法可以扩展到本科生学习非洲历史的课堂上。

Abstract The present article contributes to understanding of the Zimbabwe political institution of the southern portion of the Zambesi Valley based on the conceptualization of its population, between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. We reconstruct the local perceptions of this institution by detecting information provided by local persons as recounted in Portuguese ethnographic documents. The original information underwent different types and degrees of translation and editing to reach the forms recorded in these documents. We present a critical process of recovering local voices, ideologies, and conceptualizations from written literal translations of excerpts of oral statements that can serve as a valuable methodological tool in expanding our understanding of the history of early African politics.
本文有助于理解津巴布韦政治制度的南部部分的赞比西河流域基于其人口的概念化,在16和19世纪之间。我们通过检测葡萄牙民族志文献中描述的当地人提供的信息,重建了当地人对这一机构的看法。原始信息经过不同类型和程度的翻译和编辑,以达到这些文件中记录的形式。我们提出了一个关键的过程,从口头陈述摘录的书面翻译中恢复当地的声音,意识形态和概念化,可以作为扩展我们对早期非洲政治史的理解的有价值的方法论工具。

Abstract The digitization of African materials has made it easier than ever for students to engage with primary source documentation and undertake original research. Digitizing sources and using digital sources to teach African history has great pedagogical value, but must be done ethically. This article suggests a model for collaborative and publicly-engaged scholarship, demonstrating the potential of transnational projects and shared knowledge production while maintaining sensitivity towards questions of the hegemony of the North. The study draws on experience of a virtual internship project between North American-based university students and the South African non-profit South African History Online (SAHO).
摘要非洲材料的数字化使学生比以往任何时候都更容易接触原始资料并进行原始研究。数字化资源和使用数字资源教授非洲历史具有巨大的教学价值,但必须合乎道德。本文提出了一种合作和公开参与的学术模式,展示了跨国项目和共享知识生产的潜力,同时对北方霸权问题保持敏感。这项研究借鉴了北美大学生和南非非营利组织南非历史在线(SAHO)之间的虚拟实习项目的经验。

Born Digital? Digitization and the Birth of the Moroccan National Archives 天生的数码?数字化与摩洛哥国家档案馆的诞生

Abstract: This article examines the digitization policy of Archives du Maroc (AdM), Morocco’s national archival institution, which was set up in 2011 and opened in 2013. Given its recent creation, the AdM lead us to question the particularity of digitization in archiving policies when included from the start rather than retroactively. Through an analysis of the creation and development of AdM as a public policy connected to national efforts at transparency and “good governance,” I argue that digitization has served as a way of performing modernity through technology and international standards, thus reinforcing the legitimacy of a nascent institution.
摘要:本文考察了摩洛哥国家档案机构摩洛哥档案馆(AdM)的数字化政策,该机构成立于2011年,于2013年开放。鉴于最近创建的AdM,我们从一开始就质疑数字化在归档策略中的特殊性,而不是追溯性。通过分析AdM作为一项与国家透明度和“善治”努力相关的公共政策的创建和发展,我认为数字化是通过技术和国际标准实现现代化的一种方式,从而加强了一个新生机构的合法性。

Preserving and Digitizing Djenné’s Manuscript Collections: The Politics of Space and Agency in Central Mali Djenne手稿集的保存和数字化:马里中部的空间和机构政治
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2020-03-18 DOI: 10.1017/hia.2020.3

Abstract This article explores archival practices and ownership of the largely Arabic manuscript collections at the Djenné Manuscript Library. From 2009 to 2017 grants from the British Library’s Endangered Archives Programme enabled the preservation of 8,520 manuscripts and digitization of about 400,000 folios. In a politically volatile environment like Mali, the future of historical research is mostly contingent on the availability of digital archives. While these archives enable research that otherwise could not be conducted, they also limit the research experience in situ and thus affect findings. For the manuscript owners, questions arise about digital imperialism.
摘要本文探讨了Djenné手稿图书馆以阿拉伯语为主的手稿收藏的档案实践和所有权。从2009年到2017年,大英图书馆濒危档案计划的拨款使8520份手稿得以保存,约40万对开本得以数字化。在马里这样一个政治动荡的环境中,历史研究的未来主要取决于数字档案的可用性。虽然这些档案使原本无法进行的研究成为可能,但它们也限制了现场的研究经验,从而影响了研究结果。对于手稿所有者来说,关于数字帝国主义的问题出现了。

Preserving Public Broadcasting Archives in the Digital Era: Circulatory Stories and Technologies, the Digital Turn, and the Return of the Past in West Africa 在数字时代保存公共广播档案:循环故事和技术,数字化转向,以及西非过去的回归
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2020-03-17 DOI: 10.1017/hia.2020.2

Abstract: Broadcasting archives have been being digitized in West Africa since the 2000s. Their digital transfer, presented as both a solution to their decay and a necessary step to take them into the new century, presents considerable challenges. This article, while emphasizing the historiographical value of the archives as sources and traces, argues that the processes they undergo, which also participate in these technical objects’ afterlife, are connected to a long and circulatory history of cooperation in broadcasting. Located at the interface of past, present, and future, they also provide an opportunity to question certain geopolitical fracture lines, especially those of knowledge and memory.
摘要:自2000年代以来,西非的广播档案一直在数字化。他们的数字转移既是他们衰落的解决方案,也是将他们带入新世纪的必要步骤,这带来了相当大的挑战。本文在强调档案作为来源和痕迹的历史价值的同时,认为它们所经历的过程,也参与了这些技术对象的来生,与广播合作的漫长而循环的历史有关。它们位于过去、现在和未来的交界处,也提供了一个质疑某些地缘政治断裂线的机会,尤其是那些知识和记忆的断裂线。

Abstract: This is a study of research and conservation activities into a newly rediscovered and opened regional archive in the Préfecture of Pointe-Noire in the Republic of Congo. The study illustrates the constraints attaching to complicated post-independence materials and the need for flexibility in approaching them. Begun as an initially well-defined project targeting a vanished colonial territorial archive, the work turned instead into the finding and reorganizing of an extremely valuable but dispersed post-independence archive. The article discusses the implications of such conditions for priorities in preservation measures and questions of digitization; it makes the case for a pragmatic approach.
摘要:本研究是对刚果共和国黑角地区一个新发现并开放的地区档案馆的研究和保护活动的研究。这项研究说明了独立后复杂的材料所附带的限制以及灵活处理这些限制的必要性。作为一个最初定义明确的项目,该项目的目标是消失的殖民领土档案,这项工作变成了对一个非常有价值但分散的后独立档案的发现和重组。文章讨论了这些条件对保存措施优先次序的影响以及数字化的问题;它为务实的做法提供了理由。

Introduction: Digital History in African Studies 引言:非洲研究中的数字历史
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2020-03-16 DOI: 10.1017/hia.2020.5

Abstract This brief introduction to a special section on Digital History in African Studies situates three articles on recent digital humanities initiatives among African historians within the broader histories of the use of digital methodologies in the study of Africa. In particular, it highlights the way that Africanist digital scholarship sits at the intersection of digital historical representation, community engagement, and academic research. While Africanist digital history builds on the work of a much broader digital humanities community, historians of Africa also draw on their discipline’s long history of methodological innovation to raise important questions about the potential contributions and limitations of digital technologies in academic research.
摘要这篇关于非洲研究中的数字历史的特别章节的简要介绍,将三篇关于非洲历史学家最近在非洲研究中使用数字方法的更广泛历史中的数字人文举措的文章放在一起。特别是,它强调了非洲主义数字学术处于数字历史表现、社区参与和学术研究的交叉点。虽然非洲主义数字史建立在更广泛的数字人文社区的工作之上,但非洲历史学家也利用其学科长期的方法创新历史,提出了关于数字技术在学术研究中的潜在贡献和局限性的重要问题。

Abstract: This report is on the J.H. Kwabena Nketia Archive at the University of Ghana, Legon, Accra. In the light of growing destruction of public archives in Ghana, mainly due to chieftaincy and land litigation but also because of the lack of a proper maintenance culture, this report will suggest that other, non-conventional archives, such as the J.H. Kwabena Nketia Archive should be explored by historians and researchers. This report highlights the contribution of J.H. Kwabena Nketia who sought to preserve information that is crucial at a time when the world seems to be abandoning most of the most important and significant aspects of Africa’s cultural and artistic history. Résumé: Ce texte est un rapport est sur les archives de J.H. Kwabena Nketia situées à l’Université du Ghana, Legon, Accra.

Kwabena Nketia devraient être exploitées par des historiens et des chercheurs. Ce rapport met en évidence la contribution de J.H. Kwabena Nketia à la préservation d’informations cruciales à un moment où le monde semble abandonner la plupart des aspects les plus importants et les plus significatifs de l’histoire culturelle et artistique de l’Afrique.

Archives, the Digital Turn, and Governance in Africa 档案、数字化转型和非洲治理
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2019-12-09 DOI: 10.1017/hia.2019.26
Fabienne Chamelot, Vincent Hiribarren, Marie Rodet
Abstract: With the rise of information technology, an increasing proportion of public African archives are being digitized and made accessible on the internet. The same is being done to a certain extent with private archives too. As much as the new technologies are raising enthusiasm, they have prompted discussion among researchers and archivists, on subjects ranging from matters of intellectual property to sovereignty and governance. Digital archiving disrupts archival norms and practices, opening up a field of reflection relatively little explored by historians. This article therefore seeks to reflect on the digital turn of African archives as a subject for study in its own right, located at the crossroads of political and economic interests. Résumé: Avec l’essor des technologies de l’information, de plus en plus d’archives africaines publiques (et dans une certaine mesure privées) sont numérisées et rendues accessibles sur Internet. Même si ces nouvelles technologies suscitent l’enthousiasme, elles génèrent également des discussions entre chercheurs et archivistes, qui vont de la propriété intellectuelle à la souveraineté en passant par la gouvernance.

摘要:随着信息技术的兴起,越来越多的非洲公共档案被数字化并在互联网上开放。在某种程度上,私人档案也在做同样的事情。新技术在激发人们热情的同时,也引发了研究人员和档案工作者之间的讨论,讨论的主题从知识产权到主权和治理。数字档案颠覆了档案规范和实践,开辟了一个历史学家相对较少探索的反思领域。因此,本文试图反思非洲档案的数字化转变,将其作为一个研究主题,它本身就处于政治和经济利益的十字路口。信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术、信息技术等都可以通过互联网访问。Même我们的新技术支持“热情”,我们的新技术支持“交流与交流”,我们的新技术支持“交流与交流”,我们的新技术支持“交流与交流”,我们的新技术支持“交流与交流”,我们的新技术支持“交流与交流”。档案学上,档案学上,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的,档案学上的。Cet(中央东部东京)要条offrir一个反射苏尔le virage numerique取了par les档案africaines en le considerant像联合国同时'etude entiere一部分用非盟家乐福有中心的资本再生产。

The same is being done to a certain extent with private archives too. As much as the new technologies are raising enthusiasm, they have prompted discussion among researchers and archivists, on subjects ranging from matters of intellectual property to sovereignty and governance. Digital archiving disrupts archival norms and practices, opening up a field of reflection relatively little explored by historians. This article therefore seeks to reflect on the digital turn of African archives as a subject for study in its own right, located at the crossroads of political and economic interests.
