The word “white” serves as a versatile tool in literature, acting as both a literal descriptor and a symbol laden with meaning. It is often used to capture the visual brilliance or purity of objects and scenery, as when a tree’s wood is noted for being “white throughout” [1] or when a cottage gleams “white as the snow” [2]. At the same time, “white” delineates qualities ranging from the delicate (a dress described as pure white [3]) to the more charged, whether highlighting calm, shock, or even social constructs—its use extends to evocative portrayals of human emotions [4][5] and the demarcation of racial identities [6][7]. In technical writing, the term provides precision and clarity, as when describing a substance’s color or a game tactic [8][9]. Through these varied applications, “white” enriches narratives by contributing tangible imagery and abstract symbolism simultaneously.
