Learn what makes this product unique
  • More than 550 works by authors of African or African American descent
  • A glimpse into the creative efforts of Black authors over three centuries
  • Expertly compiled by the curators of the Afro-Americana Imprints collection

Created from the renowned holdings of the Library Company of Philadelphia, Black Authors, 1556-1922 is the most complete and compelling collection of its kind. It offers more than 550 fully catalogued and searchable works by Black authors from the Americas, Europe and Africa, expertly compiled by the curators of Afro-Americana Imprints collection. Found within are wide-ranging genres, including personal narratives, autobiographies, histories, expedition reports, military reports, novels, essays, poems and musical compositions.

New research and teaching opportunities
Major subject areas addressed in Black Authors include literature, history, colonialism, gender studies, the institution of slavery, diaspora studies and many other fields of research. As a whole, this collection reveals how the creative efforts of Black authors evolved over three centuries in response to broader social and cultural shifts.

The earliest published works are largely travel narratives and historical works treating the exploration of the African continent and the collision of European nations with the peoples of Africa. This is followed by a proliferation of personal narratives—first in Europe and then in America and the Caribbean--with the beginning of anti-slavery letters, speeches and literary works. Following the American Civil War, Black authors branched into almost all fields, resulting in a diverse collection containing works of history, science, philosophy, literature, music and drama.

Authors included are Leo Africanus, Ignatius Sancho, Benjamin Banneker, Phillis Wheatley, Olaudah Equiano, David Ruggles, William Wells Brown, Solomon Northrup, Harriet Wilson, Harriet Jacobs, Alexander Crummell, Martin Delany, Edward Wilmot Blyden, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, Josiah Henson, Frederick Douglass, Bethany Veney, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Charles W. Chestnutt, W.E.B. Du Bois, Booker T. Washington, James Weldon Johnson and hundreds of others.

Reviews & Accolades

Many resources are devoted to African American history and culture, but few offer the archival detail of Afro-Americana Imprints, 1535-1922….a multifaceted file for students and researchers of all types.

“…the new interface…is a significant improvement in terms of usability and function. Clearly labeled "browse by" options are in the middle of the page and include genre, subjects, author, history of printing, place of publication, and language. The purposely large boxes are easy to read, meaning patrons should be able to navigate them with ease.”
— Library Journal (June 1, 2015)

“The Library Company of Philadelphia’s Afro-Americana collection has long been one of the essential archives for early African American studies.  From broadsides to sermons to pamphlets to narratives, it has been indispensable to every stage of my research.  Now its online iteration, Afro-Americana Imprints, 1535-1922, has become central to how I teach early African American literature and print culture.  The collection’s breadth (generic, linguistic, geographic) and depth has allowed me to introduce students (graduate and undergraduate) and colleagues to the archive of Afro-Americana in ways heretofore impossible.  What once took forays into multiple online sources, microfilm collections, personal archives, and anthologies can now be done through one online interface.  More, the organization by Genre, Subject, Author, History of Printing, Place of Publication, and Language provides multiple vectors for engaging the archive.  The History of Printing category has been especially helpful for giving a sense of just how vast early African American print production was, while the Genre breakdown provides both organization and points of departure for thinking about how we categorize and canonize texts in the field more broadly.  While online interfaces can never replace encounters with material objects, Afro-Americana Imprints and its independently available subset of Black Authors makes getting students excited about archival research much easier.  In that sense, it provides a fantastic gateway to black print culture.”
— Derrick R. Spires, Assistant Professor of English, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

"At last! Black Authors, 1556-1922, is a dream come true for the early African-Americanist. A tremendous boon!"
— Jeannine Marie DeLombard, Associate Professor, Department of English, University of California, Santa Barbara

“Black Authors, 1556-1922, provides unparalleled chronological and geographical scope of the political, intellectual, and cultural writings of people of African descent in the Americas, Africa, and Europe. The range of authors also reflects the diasporic origins of many writers, whose citizenship status was either undefined or spanned multiple nations and cultural groups. In addition to works by individual authors, this collection includes collective writings and petitions by conventions and committees. Featuring familiar names as well as non-canonical authors, this collection is a valuable resource for introductory surveys as well as in-depth studies of black literary production in a variety of fields, including African American and African Diasporic studies, print culture, and the Atlantic World.”
— Krystal Appiah, Curator of African American History, Library Company of Philadelphia
