Message in a Bottle. Merchants' letters, merchants' marks and conflict management in 1533-34. A source edition
, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 257 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:15 b/w, 7 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503595405.
Summary In 1533, a batch of merchants' letters was to be delivered from Antwerp to London. They never reached their destination, and were only opened in a Hanseatic archive almost 500 years later. Like a message in a bottle, the letters unfold unknown individual stories and large-scale drama. They offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of the early 16th century, from hard-nosed business and prices in code sent to a wife, to the fond greetings of an English father to his three young sons or a secretive message of a grandmother from Antwerp. At the backdrop, war was looming: the letters were part of a booty taken in the English Channel in August of 1533. L beck privateers plundered six neutral ships, carting the goods of English, Dutch, Spanish, Venetian and Hanseatic merchants off to L beck and Hamburg. As a result, Henry VIII of England exploded with rage and restitution claims were made. Soon after, L beck realized the potential political cost of the action and an administrative machinery for the return of the booty was set in motion. Extensive documentation was produced under the eye of notaries, providing an overview of properties of the involved parties, including many merchant marks. The combination of unique letters and administrative documents offers new openings into the study of economic, political and social history of pre-modern northern Europe. Highlights are the migration of people and goods, resourceful conflict management and the voice of ordinary people, captured in their letters. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

Silence is a Message Hans Vandekerckhove
, Hannibal Books, 2024 Hardcover, 29 24 cm -208 pagina's Tweetalige editie Nederlands-Engels, Quadrichromie afbeeldingen . ISBN 9789464941029.
Kleurrijk overzichtswerk van beeldend kunstenaar Hans Vandekerckhove ?Silence is a message. De titel van dit boek is niet toevallig gekozen. In de schilderijen van Hans Vandekerckhove heerst stilte: een oorverdovende maar weldadige stilte, even weldadig als hun intense kleuren en golvende, bijna flu de vormen.? ? Eric Rinckhout In zijn oeuvre omarmt kunstenaar Hans Vandekerckhove ( 1957) op een persoonlijke en meeslepende manier de complexiteit van het leven. Zijn werk is een harmonieuze fusie van persoonlijke indrukken, kunsthistorische verwijzingen en een diepgaande, intieme connectie met de natuur, architectuur en de mensen om hem heen. In zijn unieke benadering combineert Vandekerckhove de eeuwenoude frescoschilderkunst uit de vroege renaissance met de verfijnde glacistechniek van de Vlaamse primitieven. Het resultaat is een po tische beeldtaal die balanceert op de grens tussen tastbare verwondering en een wereld vol kwetsbaarheid. Met tekstbijdragen van Eric Rinckhout, Christophe Vekeman, Peter Verhelst en Els Wuyts -------------------Colorful survey of the work of visual artist Hans Vandekerckhove ?Silence is a message. The title of this book is anything but accidental. Silence rules in Hans Vandekerckhove?s paintings: a deafening but salutary stillness, as salutary as their intense colours and undulating, almost fluid shapes.? ? Eric Rinckhout In his work, Hans Vandekerckhove (b. 1957) embraces the complexity of life in a unique and compelling way. His art is a harmonious synthesis of personal impressions, art historical references and a deep, intimate connection with nature, architecture and his environment. Vandekerckhove?s distinctive approach combines early Renaissance fresco techniques with the refined glazing of the Flemish Primitives. The result is a poetic visual language that hovers between tangible wonder and a world full of vulnerability.

Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man. - [""THE MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE""]
New York, McGraw-hill, (1964). Lex 8vo. Original white cloth with black title-label on which white and gilt lettering. Very minor bumping to captials, but an unusually fresh binding. Original illustrated dust-jacket in very fine condition, not price-clipped. A few small, marginal tears, but overall excellent. Internally near mint. VII, (1), 359, (1) pp.
First edition, first printing, of this pioneering study in media theory, which completely revolutionized our understanding of the process of communication and the development of the mind of mankind, from the invention of movable type through to the electronic age"" this work actually predicts the world wide web and today's information-dependent world, , making it ""the most important book ever written on communication"". It is in this groundbreaking work that McLuhan first coins the phrases ""global village"" and ""the medium is the message"", completely rethinking our society. Due to this marvel of a book, written twenty years before the PC revolution and thirty years before the rise of the Internet!, ""Marshall McLuhan has become an ""ism"". McLuhanism is a new approach to the relations of man and his technologies, and a radically fresh concept of our electronic world... Marshall McLuhan is a philosopher for the age of electronics, and a humanist for the age of communications. Seeing all of our new technologies as extensions of our senses, he examines the implications they hold for the very nature of human society"" (From the front flap of the 5th printing of the work). Herbert Marshall McLuhan (1911 - 1980) was a Canadian philosopher of communication theory. His most famous and influential work is ""Understanding Media"", in which he coins his two most widely known and repeated phrases, but he has also written other highly important works in communication theory, and his work is viewed as one of the cornerstones of the study of media theory, as well as having practical applications in the advertising and television industries.Although he was a fixture in media discourse in the late 1960s, his influence began to wane in the early 1970s. With the arrival of the internet, however, his works have experienced a great renaissance and he is now considered the most important media thinker of all times and his main work, ""Understanding Media"", the most important book on communication. ""When Marshall McLuhan first coined the phrases ""global village"" and ""the medium is the message"" in 1964, no-one could have predicted today's information-dependent planet. No-one, that is, except for a handful of science fiction writers and Marshall McLuhan. Understanding Media was written twenty years before the PC revolution and thirty years before the rise of the Internet. Yet McLuhan's insights into our engagement with a variety of media led to a complete rethinking of our entire society. He believed that the message of electronic media foretold the end of humanity as it was known. In 1964, this looked like the paranoid babblings of a madman. In our 21st century digital world, the madman looks quite sane. Understanding Media : the most important book ever written on communication. Ignore its message at your peril."" (Official review of the 2001 Routledge Classics-edition). The first printing is difficult to come by in general and is very rarely seen in a nice dust-jacket.
