''Neue Deutsche Biographie'' (''NDB'') (literally ''New German Biography'') is a biographical reference work. Scheduled for completion in 2019, it is the successor to the ''Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie'' (ADB, Universal German Biography). The 25 volumes published thus far cover more than 21,800 individuals and families who lived in the German language area. NDB is published in German by the Historical Commission at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities and printed by Duncker & Humblot in Berlin. The index and full-text articles are freely available online via the website German Biography (Deutsche Biographie) and the Biographical Portal. ==Scope== NRB is a comprehensive reference work, similar to ''Dictionary of National Biography'', ''Dictionary of American Biography'', ''American National Biography'', ''Dictionary of Canadian Biography'', ''Dictionary of Australian Biography'', ''Dictionary of New Zealand Biography'', ''Dictionary of Irish Biography'', ''Svenskt biografiskt lexikon'' and ''Österreichisches Biographisches Lexikon 1815-1950'' (ÖBL) (Austrian Biographical Dictionary 1815-1950). Its first volume, alphabetically covering names from "Aachen" to "Behaim", was published in 1953. As of 2015, the most recent volume is the 25th, covering names from "Stadion" to "Tecklenborg", which was published in February 2013. So far, more than 21,800 biographies of individuals and families, who lived in the German language Sprachraum, have been published. Some 2,400 further articles will be added in three further volumes, with completion expected in 2019. An NDB article usually contains genealogical information such as date and place of birth, date and place of death, tomb, parents, grandparents, marriages, divorces, number of children, alternate and birth names, academic degrees, a curriculum vitae in whole sentences, a valuation of the subject's political, economic, social, scientific, technical or artistic achievements, a bibliography and references to portraits. Only deceased persons with a close relation to the German language area are recorded. Each article is signed by its author. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neue Deutsche Biographie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
