Formosa: Nineteenth Century Images

Formosa is a digital library hosted by Reed College of
Portland, Oregon that specializes in gathering early images,
maps, and texts on the island of Taiwan, which was called
\Formosa\ by foreign visitors in the 19th Century. Scholars
can even find a small sampling of primary linguistic data on
various aboriginal languages collected by early explorers.
Primary source data like this were originally published in
European and North American books and journals during the
19th Century, but have since become hard to access with the
passage of time.
