The Chronotope of War: The Anti-War Message in Contemporary Russian-Language Drama
Abstract
Russian-language anti-war drama of 2022–2025, centered around the Echo of Lyubimovka festival, is not only a collection of highly relevant texts that construct a vision of wartime reality and the individual’s existence within it but also an invaluable document of the era—a collective testimony of its time. In this article, we examine key categories of the war chronotope as an embodiment of crisis time and space in anti-war plays from the festival’s repertoire (including Vanya Is Alive by N. Lizorkina, An Animal Attacked by Y. Tupikina) and outline the principles of crisis consciousness that dominate contemporary Russian-language anti-war drama.
