Our lives are saturated by color. We live in a world of colors, and color marks our psychological and social existence. But for all color's inescapability, we don't know much about it. Authors David Scott Kastan and Stephen Farthing offer a fresh and imaginative exploration of one of the most intriguing and least understood aspects of everyday experience. Kastan and Farthing, a scholar and a painter, investigate color from numerous perspectives: literary, historical, cultural, anthropological, philosophical, art historical, political, and scientific. In ten wide-ranging chapters, each devoted to a different color, they examine the various ways colors have shaped and continue to shape our social and moral imaginations. Each individual color becomes the focal point for a consideration of one of the extraordinary ways in which color appears and matters in our lives. Beautifully produced in full color, this is a remarkably smart, entertaining, and fascinating guide to this elusive topic. 606 $aColor (Philosophy)$xSocial aspects 606 $aColor$xPsychological aspects 606 $aColor$xPsychological aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00868512 615 0$aColor (Philosophy)$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aColor$xPsychological aspects. 615 7$aColor$xPsychological aspects. 676 $a306.4 700 $aKastan$b David Scott$0166084 702 $aFarthing$b Stephen$f1950- 712 02$aYale University Press, 801 0$bN$T 801 1$bN$T 801 2$bEBLCP 801 2$bYDX 801 2$bCNCGM 801 2$bTEFOD 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bIDB 801 2$bINT 801 2$bUBY 801 2$bCUT 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bTKN 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bYUS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796804803321 996 $aOn color$91669138 997 $aUNINA
