Сакрално четирицветие в Петокнижието. Език и национален манталитет

Abstract

The study examines the terms for red, blue, scarlet and white (linen) in the four color unite in the Pentateuch (on contrastive material - Hebrew – Indo-European Languages). The four color unite is in the Tabernacle. The author goes trough the cognitive similarities and differences in the semantic features and etymology of the Color Terms in Hebrew and Bulgarian languages. He offers semantisations of the basic color terms – depending on lexical semantic features of the Hebrew root and on context.
