A Cultural History of Color presents a comprehensive history of color in western culture spanning 5000 years. It is the first systematic and comprehensive history of color, examining how color has been perceived, developed, produced, and traded, and its impact on various aspects of performance, including politics, religion, art, and fashion. The work covers six volumes, each focusing on a specific period in history, and includes chapter titles that are identical across all volumes. This allows readers to choose to read about a specific period in one volume or follow a theme across history by reading the relevant chapter in each volume. The themes explored in the book include Color Philosophy and Science, Color Technology and Trade, Power and Identity, Religion and Ritual, Body and Clothing, Language and Psychology, Literature and the Performing Arts, Art, Architecture and Interiors, and Artefacts. The six volumes cover Antiquity (3,000 BCE to 500 CE), Medieval Age (500 to 1400), Renaissance (1400 to 1650), Age of Enlightenment (1650 to 1800), Age of Industry (1800 to 1920), and Modern Age (1920 to the present). The page extent for the pack is approximately 1760pp, and each volume includes Notes on Contributors and an Introduction, as well as Notes, Bibliography, and an Index. The Cultural Histories Series, of which A Cultural History of Color is a part, offers titles as hardcover sets for libraries and as a fully-searchable digital library. The digital product is available to institutions.
