摘要

We present a new commentary on Robert Grosseteste%26apos;s De colore, a short treatise that dates from the early 13th century, in which Grosseteste constructs a linguistic combinatorial account of color. In contrast to other commentaries (e.g., Kuehni %26 Schwarz, Color Ordered: A Survey of Color Order Systems from Antiquity to the Present, 2007, p. 36), we argue that the color space described by Grosseteste is explicitly three-dimensional. We seek the appropriate translation of Grosseteste%26apos;s key terms, making reference both to Grosseteste%26apos;s other works and the broader intellectual context of the 13th century, and to modern color spaces.
