The subject of this article is laboratories that have played an important role in the fight against the disease caused by the coronavirus during the COVID-19 pandemic, but which have not yet been researched from a linguistic perspective (to our knowledge). This article uses linguistic discourse analysis to determine the conceptualisation of laboratories and labs in Austrian online media discourse on the coronavirus pandemic. Quantitative, lexicostatistical analyses are used to investigate the question of what knowledge about laboratories and labs is conveyed discursively. The analyses are based on a corpus that was compiled as part of a joint research project of the Eötvös Loránd University of Budapest and the Karl-Franzens University of Innsbruck.

This article explores the synergies between artistic practice and scholarly methodology through the collaboration between globale° – Festival for Border-Crossing Literature in Bremen and the inter-university research center POLYPHONIE. The partnership demonstrates how translingual authors reflect on and influence literary and societal transformations. It addresses key questions regarding the position of translingual literature in the German-speaking literary landscape, the narrative potential of literary multilingualism, and the role of linguistic biographies in examining language ideologies and cultural belonging. The article highlights how interdisciplinary collaborations can foster new methodological approaches in German studies and contribute to contemporary societal debates.

The article presents a review of Olga Grjasnowa’s novel Juli, August, September, published in 2024. The review outlines the key themes and motifs of the novel and places it within a broader context of similar literary works by the so-called third post-Shoah generation. In particular, the connection between feminist and post-migrant perspectives in Juli, August, September is acknowledged, as well as the deeper reflection on the position of the upcoming fourth generation. Overall, the review characterizes Grjasnowa’s novel as a successful continuation and development of 3G prose, opening up several discussion areas in contemporary literary studies.
