Blood is something that all humans share: a vital force that
courses through our veins - the giver of life. This book gathers
together specially commissioned essays from leading scholars which
reflect on the religious, historical, and medical dimensions of
blood. Written for a broad audience and illustrated with full
colour plates, the essays encompass history, literature, art
history, religious studies and medical humanities and explore some
of the most challenging issues surrounding blood and ritual. The
themes covered include: blood in Christian and Jewish culture,
medieval antisemitism, Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice, Jewish
ritual, blood and 'race', Jews and genes.
