Literary notes about synchronic (AI summary)

In literature, the word "synchronic" is often used to underline a coordinated or simultaneous unfolding of events, suggesting an intricately timed or harmonious relationship among them. One work portrays historical records as being arranged in chronological and synchronic tables to catalog past events [1]. In another case, the term highlights the almost instantaneous promptness with which individuals respond, emphasizing a unified, time-bound interaction [2]. Moreover, it is employed to evoke a sense of wonder, as when an author refers to the intervention of a synchronic miracle that aligns perceptions and occurrences in a strikingly coincidental manner [3].
