    Images for the eye and soul (Hardback)
    Images for the eye and soul (Hardback)
    The printed image was a revolutionary invention which deeply affected the visual arts. Woodcuts and engravings tended to be purely utilitarian at first, mainly serving devotional purposes, but in the last quarter of the fifteenth century artists began to appreciate the potential of the medium, which enabled them to reproduce and distribute their compositions rapidly and relatively cheaply. Especially after 1550, when production became professionalised with the appearance of the print publisher, prints became a perfect means of visual communication. This explains the flowering of erudite allegories concerning human life and the afterlife, as invented by Maarten van Heemskerck. Prints also became sought-after collector's items for their style and technical quality. This applies to the graphic oeuvres of Lucas van Leyden and Hendrick Goltzius, but also to the period from 1600 onwards. This book contains 11 essays by the Dutch art historian Ilja Veldman, who has built her expertise on

    From the alley to the web (Paperback)
    From the alley to the web (Paperback)
    Developments in technology have not only transformed aspects of our daily life, but they have also impacted the way in how illicit transactions are organised, such as illicit drug supply and demand. This book focuses on illicit drug transactions through drug marketplaces on the dark web, also called cryptomarkets. The dark web is an encrypted, small part of the internet not searchable by regular search engines. These drug cryptomarkets offer an unprecedented opportunity to study a drug market and to monitor new trends in drug supply and demand. International research has provided some general insights into the profile, experiences and motivations of drug cryptomarket vendors and buyers. This research has however indicated that national differences exist regarding the different variables that relate to cryptomarket use and prevalence. Therefore, in 2019, the Belgian Science Policy Office (BELSPO) commissioned and financed CRYPTODRUG shedding a first, yet necessary, light on illicit drug
