Azechi Umetaro
Umetaro Azechi was born in 1902 in Uwajima, Ehime Prefecture, on the island of Shikoku.

Often, people from an underdog position develop astonishing energy when they have a goal in mind. Umetaro belonged to this species. He purchased a correspondence art course from Tokyo. In 1920, he came to Tokyo, took a job as a newspaper delivery boy, and continued his correspondence art course.When Tokyo was hit by the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923, Umetaro Azechi was happy to return to his hometown. But two years later, he returned to Tokyo. He felt that he would not be able to fulfill his dream of an artistic career in the provinces. He got a new job at a government printing company. The company had the necessary tools and materials for printing, and Azechi began experimenting with zinc plates without any training.His art style was primitive, but intentionally so in the same way as the naive artists. He used the same striped patterns on both people and animals, showing the similarities between the two.

Orbis Africa Journal
The Orbis Africa Journal is a new publishing platform that aims to foster discussion about the African world and its diaspora. Starting with rock art on the African continent over thirty thousand years ago, our journey extends to creating graphic writing systems in the modern era in the Americas. By recognizing Africa as a central subject across disciplines, we can better understand its foundations and appreciate the unique ways in which the African intellectual legacy intersects with our world. We believe that to understand history, philosophy, art history, archaeology, anthropology, visual culture, and literature from both the recent and distant past, it is essential to study them in relation to Africa. As a platform, the journal will evaluate African contributions and analyze the perspectives of African knowledge on contemporary issues. By doing so, it becomes feasible to use this knowledge to improve our ability to ask better questions about individuals and society.

Margaret Drabble on the Romantics
Margaret Drabble on the Romantics presents an image of Britain as seen through the eyes of some of its most celebrated writers. Many of the Romantics, as well as their successors, are closely associated with particular landscapes--the Wordsworths with the Lake District, Walter Scott with the Scottish Borders, and the Bronte] sisters with West Yorkshire. Drabble deepens our understanding of this connection, unpacking the Romantics' fascination with all varieties of rural landscape, from roaring seas to tranquil villages, while also exploring their writing's subtler associations.Herself a literary luminary, Drabble illuminates how this love of place fashioned some of the Romantics' greatest works. She considers the resonances of myth and legend, art and earlier literature that the Romantics found in places such as North Wales and Cornwall, and investigates how their writing has, in turn, shaped our visual attitudes, taste in landscape and relation to nature.
