The article examines the conceptual realization of the human sensual sphere in the collection of contemporary Ukrainian drama Anthology-24. The plays of the anthology were created in March-April 2022, when the full-scale war was still difficult to comprehend, it was perceived spontaneously rather than analytically, and preference was given to capturing the moment, recording the emotional experience, and stringing together anthropological details. Since 17 of the 23 texts for theater collected in Anthology 24 focus on the direct understanding of war through sound, color, smell, taste, sense of time, emotions, and behavioral reactions, we found it possible to talk about the sensory perception of war by its authors, who build a certain common field of concepts relevant to the first two months of Russia's full-scale aggression against Ukraine. The acoustic reception of the new stage of the war revolves around the conceptual series of anxiety-threat-explosions, which is mainly associated with fear, and the attempt to resist fear is formalized in a new series of resistance-words-ordinary heroism, which is just beginning to appear in dramatic texts. The color palette of the Anthology-24 collection is dominated by dark colors, which are associated with the emotional state of confused people, the space of underground shelters without light, the dark invasion from the East, and the feeling of coming emptiness and helplessness before death. Of course, the white color against this background becomes absolutely triggering. We can see the first attempts to capture the bloody essence of war in red, and to emphasize one's national (in the sense of political, not ethnic nation) and civic affiliation through the colors of national flags. On the level of smell and taste, the conceptual framework has not yet been built: there is barely any awareness of the special smell of death/dead bodies, and in the absence of food, people eat anything that prevents them from starving to death. The experience of the first two months of the full-scale war revolves around only two concepts - “hell” and “cold” - between which there is practically no middle range. For those who are passively or remotely experiencing the war, time seems to freeze, but it is endowed with the ability to return to those who realize that they will have no other time to live and who begin to actively engage in the new reality. For those who have been living in the war since 2014, time, on the contrary, is accelerating, compressing traumatic memory and subjecting to oblivion what may no longer be worth remembering. The entire corpus of Anthology-24 can be read as a post-apocalyptic metatext, so post-catastrophism significantly affects the behavioral patterns and emotional sphere of the protagonists and characters in the plays. In the future, it will be interesting to study how the relevant conceptual sphere transforms over time, what new concepts or semantic fields emerge/dominate in it, and to compare the material presented in this article with the plays of later Ukrainian playwrights' anthologies about the war.
