  • "The Taming of the Shrew is one of the most famous and controversial of Shakespeare's comedies. The central relationship, in which Petruchio boisterously "tames" a rebellious Kate, has often appeared problematic. In the theatre, it has been treated in a diversity of ways, so that Kate's apparent capitulation varies between the ironic and the sincere. Feminists have been divided in their responses. The provocative vitality of this comedy has been transmitted by numerous adaptations for stage and screen, notably the film directed by Franco Zeffirelli and the Cole Porter musical, Kiss Me, Kate."@en
  • "William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in late April 1565 and baptised there on 26th April. He was one of eight children. Little is known about his life but what is evident is the enormous contribution he has made to world literature. His writing was progressive, magnificent in scope and breathtaking in execution. His plays and sonnets helped enable the English language to speak with a voice unmatched by any other. William Shakespeare died on April 23rd 1616, survived by his wife and two daughters. He was buried two days after his death in the chancel of the Holy Trinity Church. The epitaph on the slab which covers his grave includes the following passage, Good friend, for Jesus's sake forbear, to dig the dust enclosed here. Blessed me the man that spares these stones, and cursed be he that moves my bones. Here we publish his comedy from 1593 'The Taming of the Shrew'."@en

Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare's works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare's innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech.HarperPerennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

  • "Believed to have been written between 1590 and 1592, The Taming of the Shrew is among the playwright's most celebrated and studied comedies. The story of Katherina, the "shrew" of the title, and Petruchio, her "tamer," the comedy displays an interesting gender dynamic. The play opens with an induction featuring Christopher Sly, a drunken tinker who wrecks havoc on a local alehouse. For years, the comedy has been criticized for its misogynistic and patriarchal tones, especially in the famous ending speech from Kate. While some critics bemoan this passage, others believe that the over-the-top induction point to the farcical intention of the play in its entirety."@en
