In the early modern period, images of revolts and violence became
increasingly important tools to legitimize or contest political
structures. This volume offers the first in-depth analysis of how
early modern people produced and consumed violent imagery, and
assesses its role in memory practices, political mobilization, and
the negotiation of cruelty and justice. Critically evaluating the
traditional focus on Western European imagery, the case studies in
this book draw on evidence from Russia, China, Hungary, Portugal,
Germany, North America, and other regions. The contributors
highlight the distinctions among visual cultures of violence, as
well as their entanglements in networks of intensive transregional
communication, early globalization, and European colonization.
Contributors: Monika Barget, David de Boer, Nora G. Etenyi, Fabian
Fechner, Joana Fraga, Malte Griesse, Alain Hugon, Gleb Kazakov,
Nancy Kollmann, Ya-Chen Ma, Galina Tirnanic, and Ramon Voges.
