Literary notes about concurrently (AI summary)

The term concurrently is employed to highlight that two or more processes, events, or states occur at the same time, uniting actions that might otherwise seem unrelated. In literature, it serves to synchronously link diverse threads—from the parallel unfolding of narrative events and character developments [1][2] to the juxtaposition of political appointments or institutional changes that take place simultaneously [3][4]. It is also used in scientific and technical contexts to indicate processes that occur in tandem, underscoring the idea that multiple phenomena or actions, whether in art, history, or science, share the same temporal framework [5][6].
