Summary/Abstract: The author attempts to analyze a part of the periodic press – the newspapers, the magazines issued in 1937–1938. She regards the published materials for the preparation and the work of the Munich conference and how it was covered by the periodic press. Despite of the fact that the press did not express opinions and personal positions of the authors, the published materials are valuable, objective and written in good journalistic style. All events about the Munich conference were well covered with notes, correspondence, articles and analysis. An important role for the good information given to the readers the Bulgarian Telegraph Agency and its initials often stood under the publications. Frequently the foreign press was used as a source of information. Many comments, articles, panoramic materials and informations taken from prestigious European publications found place on the pages of the Bulgarian newspapers and magazines. This way the Bulgarian periodic press quite objectively and impartiality managed to inform the Bulgarian public about the most important events in the eve of the Second World War.
