Literary notes about ultr (AI summary)

Among the many uses of the term "ultr" in literary sources, only a very select few employ it specifically as a color. In example [1], for instance, “the ultr” is presented as a standalone color term—a striking, almost enigmatic hue that seems to defy ordinary categorization. In this usage, the color “ultr” evokes a sense of otherworldliness and intensity, suggesting that what is described possesses an extraordinary, almost sublime visual quality. Although such color-specific applications are rare compared to its more common adverbial or prepositional uses (as seen in other examples), the deliberate choice of “ultr” in this context enriches the imagery by inviting readers to imagine a hue that transcends the typical spectrum.
