What are our memories of a blue rabbit, a red dress, a yellow bike - and were they really those colours? What colours do we associate with our student years, our first loves, our adult lives? How does colour leave its mark on memory?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn an attempt to answer these and other questions, Michel Pastoureau presents us with a journal about colours that covers half a century. Drawing on personal recollections, he retraces the recent history of colours through an exploration of fashion and clothing, everyday objects and practices, emblems and flags, sport, literature, museums and art.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis text - playful, poetic, nostalgic - records the life of both the author and his contemporaries. We live in a world increasingly bursting with colour, in which colour remains a focus for memory, a source of delight and, most of all, an invitation to dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michel Pastoureau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745655718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745655710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Michel Pastoureau","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43947075698943,"sku":"9780745655710","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_cb7e5138-cd48-4c9c-bdff-7a8e5679544c.jpg?v=1681516565","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-colours-of-our-memories-michel-pastoureau-9780745655710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
