Více o knize

Set in Padua, the play centers on the tumultuous courtship between Petruchio and Katherina, a strong-willed woman known as the "shrew." Petruchio employs psychological tactics to "tame" her into compliance, sparking debates about misogyny in the narrative. The subplot involves the suitors of Katherina's sister, Bianca, who cannot marry until Katherina does, leading to a collaboration among the suitors. This comedy, framed by a clever induction featuring Christopher Sly, has inspired numerous adaptations across various media.
