Color in Glossolalia: White in Western Culture

The aim of this article is to discuss some aspects that deal with color in Western culture. The word WHITE circulates in common discourse, sometimes as a noun, sometimes as an adjective, and sometimes in idiomatic expressions. Given the vastness of contexts in which it is used and circulates, I will focus on the meanings of color in artefacts that are part of Western material culture, as it is impossible to remove from them the symbolic force that results from their being WHITE.
