impresso - Media Monitoring of the Past II. Beyond Borders: Connecting Historical Newspapers and Radio
1 September 2023 to 28 February 2027
impresso - Media Monitoring of the Past is an interdisciplinary research project which puts forward the vision of a comprehensive connection between media archives across languages and media types. Starting in 2023, we will build a Western European historical media corpus consisting of newspaper and radio sources, use machine-learning techniques to enrich and interlink them and develop user interfaces for data-driven transnational historical research in comparative perspective.
impresso is a collaboration between the C²DH, EPFL, the University of Zurich and the University of Lausanne and 20 partnering media archives and libraries. The project is jointly funded by the Swiss SNF and the Luxembourgish FNR.
