The spectrum's shades of meaning
Article Abstract:
Arguments as to whether culture influences our perception of colour lead one to examine the concept of culture itself, a problem which perplexed Umberto Eco. Describing colours as warm or cold has little relation to heating capacity. Other attempts to link colour to other factors to determine basic colour experiences tend to show that the factor referred to is basic, rather than the colour. The language of colour often bears little relationship to how it is perceived, and perceptions vary according to social groups.
