Reviews
"While tightly focused on the enjoyably gruesome imagery of blood as it appears in Renaissance texts, Weindling's study encompasses significantly larger cultural, political, and philosophical discussions, offering valuable insight into both the period and its literature. Weindling's fascinating international scope presents major English dramatists in a wider European context, offering fresh perspectives, and making significant contribution to the medical humanities field. A wonderfully rich, generous, and stimulating study, gaining real interpretive rewards from its gory focus." --Eric Langley, author of Shakespeare's Contagious Sympathies

Synopsis
Examines the discourses around the role of bloodlines and kinship in the social hierarchies of early modern Europe "Blood is thicker than water," goes the old proverb. But do common bloodlines in fact demand special duties or prescribe affections? Thicker than Water examines the roots of this belief by studying the omnipresent discourse of bloodlines and kindred relations in the literature of early modern Europe. Early modern discourses concerning kinship promoted the idea that similar bloodlines dictated greater love or affinity, stabilizing the boundaries of families and social classes, as well as the categories of ethnicity and race. Literary representations of romantic relationships were instrumental in such conceptions, and Lauren Weindling examines how drama from England, France, and Italy tests these assumptions about blood and love, exposing their underlying political function. Among the key texts that Weindling studies are Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet ¸ Othello , and The Merchant of Venice , Pierre Corneille's Le Cid , Giambattista della Porta's La Sorella and its English analog, Thomas Middleton's No Wit/Help Like a Woman's , John Ford's 'Tis Pity She's a Whore , and Machiavelli's La Mandragola . Each of these plays offers an extreme limit case for early modern notions of belonging and exclusion, through plots of love, courtship, and marriage, including blood feuds and incest. Moreover, they feature the voices of marginalized groups, unprivileged by these metrics and ideologies, and thus offer significant counterpoints to this bloody worldview. While most critical studies of blood onstage pertain to matters of guilt or violence, Thicker Than Water examines the work that blood does unseen in arbitrating social and emotional connections between persons, and thus underwriting our deepest forms of social organization., Examines the discourses around the role of bloodlines and kinship in the social hierarchies of early modern Europe, Examines the discourses around the role of bloodliness and kinship in the social hierarchies of early modern Europe "Blood is thicker than water," goes the old proverb.
