Daily newspapers are an extremely interesting source of material for historical research. However, in the absence of adequate indexing, this source material has always proved difficult to evaluate. Now the most important newspaper of its period has been digitized and compiled in a modern research database, making it easily accessible for the very first time. The research database Vossische Zeitung Online. 1918–1934 contains approximately 10,500 issues of the oldest and most renowned Berlin daily newspaper, with a total of some 127,000 full text pages. All issues published from the year 1918 until the newspaper was closed down in 1934, including the supplements, have been arranged and prepared for the online edition, and gaps have been filled. The database also includes all the foreign editions, Die Voss and Die Post aus Deutschland (Post from Germany). Thus, it constitutes a unique and complete collection, the like of which has not previously been available in any library. Researchers regard the Vossische Zeitung as a unique and significant source for the study of political reporting and public opinion in Germany. It was one of the most important sources of public opinion in Prussia, depicting and commenting upon daily events in a period of frequent change: the end of World War One, the revolution and the workers' and soldiers' councils, the political discussions and disturbances of the Weimar Republic's early days, the world economic crisis beginning in 1929 and the rise of National Socialism. Its coverage of events mirrored the rich cultural life in Berlin during the "Roaring Twenties". Provide Feedback on this Trial
