In this world, I'm afraid no nation has been so obsessed with color as the Chinese nation for thousands of years. Red, cyan, yellow, black and white, and the intermediate colors between them, these direct visual feelings are constantly rearranged and combined in a certain order in different historical periods. China people endow them with all kinds of important, far-reaching, precise and complicated social meanings with nuanced differences.
Color is a political culture.
Color culture has a long history. Until today, the color concept left by our ancestors is still an important part of our social life.
The five colors are hidden in various records of China's history. The author carefully extracted from the bits and pieces of history, checked horizontally, combed vertically and explored deeply. Bronze inscriptions in Shang and Zhou Dynasties, several words in Xu Shen's Shuo Wen Jie Zi, The Book of Songs, Zuo Zhuan and The Book of Rites, records in Jin Shu, Shu Wei, Book of the Old Tang Dynasty, Zi Tong Zhi Jian, poems and songs by literati of past dynasties, novels of Ming and Qing Dynasties such as A Dream of Red Mansions and Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and even. The amount of information in Weaving Colors into Historical Notes is amazing and enjoyable.
The author's research on color is not much involved in natural science, but on the whole, he is still immersed in the study of literature and history. The relationship between color and political culture is endowed with affection and eloquence in this book.
