The author uses the color red to symbolize love because red is a color that is commonly attributed to heart and passion. When Ethan is watching the dance from outside of the church, he sees a young man that “drew forth a girl who had already wound a cherry-colored “fascinator” about her head...” (pg. 20) Ethan longed to see the beautiful face that was veiled under the red scarf “and it vexed him that another eye should have been quicker than his” (pg. 20) His jealousy had already developed which shows that he has already begun to acquire some feelings for this girl. Red is the color of fire, which is a term when often referred to when there is a connection between people. There is said to be a fire between them when there is passion and love between people. In the same paragraph the word “fire” is also present. When Ethan and Mattie return home after this, they are greeted by Zeena in which the spark between the two disappear and took off her scarf to reveal “lips and cheeks” that were “the colour of the cherry scarf” (pg. 35) When Mattie removes her scarf, it symbolizes their passion fleeting, but it is still within her. The cherry red color of the scarf tied around Mattie’s head symbolizes the love that Ethan developes for her and the love that he feels the moment he sees her since he had “taken to the girl since the first day”.(22) Along with the author using the red color of Mattie’s scarf to

In literature, red is often associated with blood and violence. Four researchers, Erella Hovers, Shimon Ilani, Ofer Bar-Yosef, and Bernard Vandermeersch, studied colored symbolism and concluded; “Color symbolism is one of the symbolic frameworks used extensively by contemporary societies to convey information and abstract messages through material objects” (Hovers et al.,2003.) Through the use of colors, May vividly expresses the emotions of the speaker towards society, regarding the topics of warfare and education. He specifically selects certain colors, like black and red, to stir up emotions within Jontae. The colors create a symbolic image, ultimately leading up to represent the violent scenes taking place. May writes his fear; “I know how often red is the only color left to reach” (18-19), to show his apprehension for Jontae a young male in society surrounded by warfare. Red in literature often represents blood, sacrifice, and violence. Using colors throughout the poem, creates a more vehement atmosphere, in which Jontae is left to choose between warfare, and discovering his identity in an alternative

The author James hurst keeps bringing up the color red so you keep thinking of it and keep wondering what importance it has.

In the short story "The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst shows how pride can come back and become regret pretty fast with imagery of red. First Hurst shows us red imagery in "Trembling had pushed himself up turning red, then a soft purple." And this shows how Doodle is trying to crawl around and move like a baby normally would. He also shows that when you push yourself too much it can be bad, but if you keep doing it you can make everyone proud and it will be easier for yourself. Another way Hurst shows us red imagery "He had been bleeding from the mouth, and his neck and the front of his shirt were stained brilliant red." this shows when you push someone to hard or you push yourself to hard it can end up badly. Brother wanted Doodle to be able

The first sense I would employ is the taste of a fresh sweet strawberry that has been sitting in the sun. Red is often associated with something sweet so the linkage of a strawberry would capture this connection. Touch would also be an important association so I would take my blind friend out into the warm sun as it sets in the afternoon. This would lay the connections of red being a warming and friendly colour and would reinforce the sweetness of the strawberry. Sound would be the next important element to create an affiliation to red. I would use the sound of a crackling fire as it sparks its ambers up into the air as this would demonstrate the explosive brightness that a pop of red can bring. To create the appropriate interconnections of red I would tie up these senses with the emotions of passion and excitement as that would unify red this sweet warming crackling sensation to the emotional base that one feels when seeing the colour

In the short story, “A Red Dress 1946” by Alice Munro, Color imagery is used for signifying a girls point of view of her world and her own self by using the color red which represents nonconformity. The narrator has only a slight interest in being red, but she really wants to be blue, just like everyone else. Munro writes, “When I was asked a question in class, any simple little question at all…that I had blood on my skirt”.(2) The narrator is just so nervous about being red she is thinking of bad things that can happen with the color red. She is thinking of all the bad times the color red could do a girl badly, just like a girls period could leak at any moment. In “A Red Dress 1946”, a short story by Alice Munro, she uses Color Imagery to show the significance of the narrator’s view of the color red and all the “Evil” about it.

The dining table scene where 3rd mistress arrives fashionably late dressed in a bright red gown shows that she currently holds the power in the amongst the four mistresses.
