This dataset was created as part of a doctoral research project at the Department of International History at the University of Trier. For the first time, this dataset compiles central metadata on Catholic and Protestant missionary periodicals published in German between 1800 and 1918, aiming for a nearly comprehensive survey.
Technical Remarks & Formats
For the purpose of long-term archiving, these data are made accessible to the scientific community. The dataset includes:
- XLSX (Excel) & CSV (Comma-Separated Values) data files (in German).
- DOCX explanatory notes (provided as a user guide and documentation for the dataset, available in both English and German).
Ongoing Project & Contribution
An ongoing, continuously updated version of this bibliographic database is available in FactGrid: https://database.factgrid.de/wiki/FactGrid:German_Missionary_Periodicals
I highly appreciate any hints, corrections, or references to missionary periodicals that have not yet been included in this collection.
