       <abstract>Analyzing historical discourse in large-scale newspaper archives requires scalable and interpretable methods to uncover hidden themes. This study systematically evaluates topic modeling approaches for newspaper articles from 1955 to 2018, comparing probabilistic LDA, matrix factorization NMF, and neural-based models such as Top2Vec and BERTopic across various preprocessing strategies. We benchmark these methods on topic coherence, diversity, scalability, and interpretability. While LDA is commonly used in historical text analysis, our findings demonstrate that BERTopic, leveraging contextual embeddings, consistently outperforms classical models in all tested aspects, making it a more robust choice for large-scale textual corpora. Additionally, we highlight the trade-offs between preprocessing strategies and model performance, emphasizing the importance of tailored pipeline design. These insights advance the field of historical NLP, offering concrete guidance for historians and computational social scientists in selecting the most effective topic-modeling approach for analyzing digitized archives. Our code will be publicly available on GitHub.</abstract>
