Aus dem Verlagstext: „Im Zuge der Covid-19-Pandemie wurde die weltweite Bewegungsfreiheit erheblich eingeschränkt. Besonders innerhalb der Europäischen Union, die sich durch ein hohes Maß grenzüberschreitender Verflechtungen kennzeichnet, ging die Einführung von Grenzrestriktionen mit Einschnitten im Arbeits- und Lebensalltag einher. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt überblicksweise die praktischen und symbolischen Auswirkungen für Grenzraumbewohner:innen der so genannten Großregion vor, die während der ‚ersten Welle‘ aus den Maßnahmen zur Pandemiebekämpfung resultierten. In einer Kontrastierung mit den Maßnahmen nachfolgender Pandemiephasen zeigt sich, dass Lehren aus den Erfahrungen im Frühjahr 2020 gezogen wurden. Grenzregionen und die Belange grenzüberschreitender Arbeitnehmer:innen rückten stärker ins (politische) Bewusstsein. Während die Pandemie zunächst eine Zäsur für Grenzregionen und die europäische Integration bedeutete, deuten die dynamischen Anpassungen der Maßnahmen und neu verankerte Zielsetzungen zugunsten einer stärkeren Berücksichtigung grenzüberschreitender Verflechtungen darauf hin, dass die Covid-19-Pandemie perspektivisch auch eine Chance darstellen kann, die Impulse für eine engere Vernetzung von Grenzregionen gibt.“

Aus dem Verlagstext: „This article focuses on the social media image that emerged from Northern and Southern European countries during the Covid-19 crisis, in particular during the Recovery Fund negotiations. To this end, a corpus of 157 tweets by moderate and populist Italian and Dutch political leaders was created during the period between March and August 2020. The theoretical premises are based on imagology, a sub-discipline that originated in the field of comparative literature which over time has been applied to other domains, such as media studies and translation studies. The preliminary results of this small corpus of tweets confirm that populist rhetoric tends to use national stereotypes to attack opponents.“

Abstract: „This article examines the role played by signs in the public space of two socio-economically stratified residential neighbourhoods of Ghent (Belgium) during the first Covid-19 outbreak in 2020. On the basis of fieldwork, we explore the potential of public signs as a resourceful strategy for communicating solidarity and support and the discursive construction of a community affected by this crisis. We show that in times of lockdown and social distancing, the residential linguistic landscape in both neighbourhoods became strategically appropriated by local inhabitants to communicate with neighbours and strangers and was operationalised as a vehicle to serve new communicative functions such as the conveying of solidarity and support as well as gratitude, and collective belonging. Some differences related to emplacement, language use and quantity of signs were also observed. Overall, the article documents the affective appropriation of space through Covid-19 signs during the Covid-19 outbreak and periods of lockdown in Flanders, Belgium.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „COVID-19, as well as the measures set to stop the spread of the virus, strike urban life at its heart. Indeed, much of what makes urban life attractive thrives on the physical proximity of a diversity of people in densely populated built environments. It then comes as no surprise that the socio-spatial dynamics of this infectious disease have triggered a lively debate on the future of the city. In this chapter, by engaging with several voices in this public and academic debate, we focus on the question of whose city we are talking about when we refer to the post-COVID-19 city, focusing on the highly (sub)urbanized Flemish region and Brussels in Belgium. While there is plenty of evidence emerging that both COVID-19 and the COVID-19 measures, in particular the lockdown, hit the urban population very unequally and that it reproduces and strengthens certain urban inequalities, we argue that in the debate on urban life in the (post-)COVID-19 city a ‘white’ middle-class perspective is often dominant. As a result, the diversity of spatial needs and the varying degrees of spatial poverty are not sufficiently taken into account. We then move on to document the impact of COVID-19, and the measures to counter it, on precarious groups living in the city. Finally, we suggest a few socio-spatial lessons which could be drawn from the lockdown for a more equal post-COVID-19 city. The impact of the lockdown on urban life and the use of urban space was instantaneous. A remarkable feature of several early newspaper articles on COVID-19 and in Flemish cities and Brussels is its framing in terms of ‘urban flight’. In the articles, COVID-19 is framed as a potential new driver of urban flight and thus a threat to the renewed popularity of cities with (a part of) the middle class.“

Angaben zum Inhalt: „De coronapandemie overspoelde in het voorjaar van 2020 ook Nederland. Onderzoekers van het Meertens Instituut trokken er meteen op uit, al was het soms via het beeldscherm: wat voor verhalen vertelden mensen elkaar? Ontstonden er nieuwe rituelen? En waarom verschenen er ineens spandoeken in dialect in het straatbeeld? In 'Viraal Nederland' lezen we een analyse van de manier waarop taal en cultuur meebewogen met 'het nieuwe normaal'. De crisis laat zien dat bestaande aspecten van taal en cultuur veeleer worden uitvergroot dan echt veranderd. Daarmee zien we scherper hoe de wereld in Nederland, ook onder normalere omstandigheden, in elkaar zit.“

Alle genres zijn vertegenwoordigd: sprookje, sage, legende, raadsel, mop, broodjeaapverhaal en dergelijke. De oudste verhalen stammen uit de middeleeuwen, de jongste verhalen dateren - bij wijze van spreken - van gisteren. De verhalen zijn zowel in het Nederlands, het Fries als in allerhande streektalen.“
