In 'Blood Relations', Janet Adelman confronts her resistance to 'The Merchant of Venice' as both a critic and a Jew. She argues that the play frames the uneasy relationship between Christian and Jew specifically in familial terms in order to recapitulate the vexed relationship between Christianity and Judaism. |
