In the Bremer Newspapers Collection we provide digitized historical newspapers from Bremen. To date, the collection includes some single issues as well as the fully digitized Bremer Nationalsozialistische Zeitung (Bremer National-Socialist Newspaper).
Project Information: Bremer nationalsozialistische Zeitung
The SuUB grants unrestricted access to this newspaper in its digital collections. The complete period of publication (1931-1945, approx. 45 Volumes and 55,000 pages) has been digitized. The Bremer Nationalsozialistische Zeitung was publishsed in the Hanseatic city from January 1931 as a party organ of the NSDAP; from November 1933 onwards, the party newspaper was all-encompassingly renamed the "Bremer Zeitung" (Bremer Newspaper) and later tasked as an official journal. As a party organ of the NSDAP, the reporting of this newspaper was controlled by the Nazi apparatus and was even formulated in detail in the "Tagesparolen" (daily slogans), which were adopted verbatim from 1940 onwards. The Bremer Nationalsozialistische Zeitung was thus completely dominated by National Socialist propaganda.
The SuUB Bremen provides important historical documents for science, research and teaching in its digital collections. The Bremer Nationalsozialistische Zeitung is a popular source for critical historical research on the topic of Bremen's history under national socialism. By digitizing the Bremer Nationalsozialistische Zeitung, a source that was previously only available in its original print form and microfilm is now available for contemporary research.
The SuUB Bremen expressly distances itself from all racist, violence-glorifying and National Socialist content.
