Together the contributors explore the colour capacityactual and potentialof their chosen texts; they track the variable agency of colour in writing; and they engage in the migration of colour concepts from critical thought and theory to the practice of reading texts visually and, especially, chromatically.Modern and contemporary poetry and narrative in French have an intense and sustained relation to visual practice in forms and formats that include ekphrasis and the livre d'artiste, yet the question of colour in the literary text remains under-explored by critics and researchers, and, we believe, the colour capacity of texts is consequently undervalued or even occluded.
