Blood is thicker than water is a proverb in English meaning that familial bonds will always be stronger than other relationships. The oldest record of this saying can be traced back in the 12th century in German. History A similar proverb in German first appeared in a different form in the medieval German beast epic ''Reinhart Fuchs'' (c. 1180; English: ''Reynard the Fox'') by Heinrich der Glîchezære. The 13th-century Heidelberg manuscript reads in part, "ouch hoer ich sagen, das sippe blůt von wazzere niht verdirbet" (lines 265–66). In English it reads, "I also hear it said that kin-blood is not spoiled by water." Jacob Grimm suggests that this saying, which is not read anywhere else, means that the bonds of family blood are not erased by the waters of baptism, and so the raven Diezelin will have inherited his father's outlook despite having been christened. In 1412, the English priest John Lydgate observed in ''Troy Book'', "For naturelly blod wil ay of kynde / Dra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
