Through out the entire play, I’ve gravitated towards Ford’s need to reinforce character’s actions with the material or physical. We spoke about this in class a bit, but blood was a constantly repeated, tears were. But also non-bodily physical expressions of emotion are used throughout, such as swords, and the letter- which appears in Act 5. The tangibility of these objects and substances counteract the invisibility or intangibility of love and incest, so I wonder if Ford implemented the physical material embodiments of their emotions, to balance out what can’t be seen or touched. There is almost a sense of evidentiary support or justification that Ford provides to the reader, through these objects, as if he is self aware or suspecting that readers/audience member might not believe the presence of incest or buy into their love.
