Abstract
The scientific monograph “Literary Multilingualism in the Slovenian and Austrian Context” (2020) is a collective work of nineteen researchers from five countries. The subject of their analysis was the theoretical, methodological and contextual aspects of literary multilingualism within the framework of the concept of a “supra-regional sphere of literary interaction”. They were regarded through the prism of small, immigrant, transcultural literatures and literature of national minorities. Among them are the Slovenian minority in Austrian Carinthia and Italy, the Italian minority in Croatian and Slovenian Istria, as well as the literature of multilingual authors and immigrant authors in Austria and Slovenia, both in modern times, in the 19th century, and during the First World War.
