Description

Colour shapes our world by helping us classify, form opinions, and make aesthetic or emotional judgements. While archaeologists have traditionally focused on the form and material value of objects, this book by Berg Publishers examines the often overlooked impact of colour on human history. This work explores how colour-based cultural understandings are formed and how they function as symbols and metaphors within various aesthetic systems. It investigates the ways colour is used to sustain or alter social relations throughout different cultures. By looking beyond material value, this text provides a new perspective on how colour operates in every culture as part of a complex conceptual system.
