Roles in society: Can we fight them or not?


The theme of The Taming of the Shrew is in society, we are all made to play our roles, some of us may fight it, but no matter what, we’re made to play that role and will fulfill it. This is maintained throughout the play because of how Kate fights against the men in the Patriarchal society, but as the story goes on and Petruchio starts to control her, she shifts into a completely different character. The smart mouth feminist woman turns into the ideal woman of the society who obeys the men and has become even more tamed than her sister Bianca. This story explores how some people will fight what they’re meant to become but they will become what they’re meant to none the less.
