Bibliographic Information on Contemporary Italian History

Up to no. 113 (2003) entitled: Bibliographische Informationen zur Geschichte Italiens im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert. Informazioni bibliografiche sulla storia d’Italia nei secoli XIX e XX:
- nos. 1 to 98 (1974–1999), edited by Jens Petersen;
- from no. 99 (1999), founded by Jens Petersen, edited by Lutz Klinkhammer.

Editorial staff: Lutz Klinkhammer, Eva Grassi, Susanne Wesely. Contact: wesely(at)dhi-roma(dot)it. 

The bibliographic information, which to now includes over 100,000 new publications in the field of history, often with additional details, is published in the form of a database by the DHI Rome. New publications are added to the database annually and can be downloaded as PDF files. As of issue 166, the printed PDF edition, previously distributed by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für die neueste Geschichte Italiens/Gruppo di studio per la storia contemporanea italiana (Study Group for Contemporary Italian History) has been replaced by a purely electronic edition, which will continue to be distributed to the members of the Study Group in PDF format.

The Study Group, founded by Wolfgang Schieder and Jens Petersen in 1974 and closely linked to the German Historical Institute of Rome, is currently based in Passau and directed by Professor Dr. Jens Späth.

The 2025 update is available and can be researched in the database.
