Comparative study of texts and contexts

This comparative study explores the social, cultural, and historical contexts presented in William Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" and the modern adaptation "10 Things I Hate About You." It examines the values and importance that each composer places on societal norms, cultural attitudes, and historical ideas within their texts. By analyzing the differences and similarities in how these two works reflect and challenge the issues of their respective times, we gain insight into the evolution of gender roles and societal expectations across different eras.
