A lesson on color symbolism

by Gman4326


Two short stories

First one in a form of prayer; mister red asks Lord blue what is mister black (my) chief purpose in life? To glorify me forever, answers Lord blue.

Upon a midwinters eve mister red sits down in front of his desk upon his line of sight a title of a book called brown’s thesis. He open’s it up and read’s what is the chief end for man? To glorify God and enjoy him forever is the answer.

In both stories red is the protagonist so who is he an anthropomorphic symbol for a man of puritan reform faith. So the character can be separate individuals or the same. In this particular case they are two different men. The anthropomorphic symbol blue is heaven and the Lord of heaven is God, black symbolizes death in the first one man’s character from birth. The color brown symbolizes the subordinate standard which is Reformed confession of faith, catechism or other doctrinal or regulatory statement subscribed to by a Protestant church; this question one from the Westminster shorter catechism 1646 and answer one without the scriptural reference.    

Essentially color symbolism is: simple form of literary device, to do what, practice of American English with this you can write good stories without a heavy need for prose.
