Literary analysis:
Although most instances of “absolute zero” in literature refer strictly to temperature, a few works transform the term into a visual or symbolic hue—a color that embodies the essence of stark, unyielding cold. In these rarer uses, “absolute zero” is not just a measure of heat but a poetic descriptor that evokes a monochromatic palette of blues or blacks, suggesting a landscape drained of vibrancy and warmth. For example, in chapter titles like [1] and [2] the stark declaration of “ABSOLUTE ZERO” invites readers to imagine a setting imbued with an almost spectral chill, a visual marker for desolation and stillness. In such passages the color becomes a powerful metaphor, coloring entire scenes with an emotional and atmospheric extremity that goes beyond the scientific definition to evoke profound isolation and emptiness.

This tab, the new OneLook "color thesaurus", is a work in progress. It draws from a data set of more than 2000 color names gathered from sources around the Web, and an analysis of how they are referenced in English texts. Some words, like "peach", function as both a color name and an object; when you do a search for words like these, you will see both of the above sections.
