This Element describes the development of an affective economy of
violence in the early modern Dutch Republic through the circulation
of images. The Element outlines that while violence became more
controlled in the course of the 17th century, with fewer public
executions for instance, the realm of cultural representation was
filled with violent imagery: from prints, atlases and paintings,
through theatres and public spectacles, to peep boxes. It shows how
emotions were evoked, exploited, and controlled in this affective
economy of violence based on desires, interests and exploitation.
