PITCH BLACKNESS Meaning and
Definition
-
Pitch blackness refers to a state or quality of complete darkness, characterized by the absence or lack of any perceivable light. The term "pitch" derives from the substance known as pitch, which is a dark and viscous material. By analogy, the term has come to represent an extreme level of darkness, deeper and more impenetrable than regular darkness. It describes a profound and absolute absence of light, where all visual stimuli are obscured or indistinguishable.
In pitch blackness, there is an intense void of visual information, making it extremely difficult or impossible to discern shapes, objects, or navigate one's surroundings. It is an absence of light so complete that no light reflections or sources are visible to the human eye, resulting in a feeling of eerie emptiness and disorientation. In such a state, even familiar places may become unfamiliar and potentially treacherous.
This term is often used metaphorically to describe situations or emotions that are characterized by a profound sense of emptiness, fear, isolation, or uncertainty. It may connote a feeling of being completely lost or having no guidance or reference point. Overall, pitch blackness refers to a level of darkness that is so deep and impenetrable that it evokes a sense of foreboding, helplessness, and a lack of visual perception.
