The Taming of the Shrew- Last Post- Pd. 3- Abbey Stefanides
I am going to connect this part of the book to the Lord of the Flies. In the Lord of the Flies, somehow Jack gets all of the boys to obey him, even though Ralph was the better and more mature one of the two. This connects to The Lord of the Flies because Kate learns to listen to Petruchio, and it seems as though he was tricking her into doing this, but he succeeds in taming Kate. Petruchio has done the unthinkable and blows all of his guy friends away. But Kate’s obeying is seen in a bright light rather than a dark light like in the Lord of the Flies. Do you agree with this connection? Is there a better connection that I could have made? I thought that this play was a very good/ cute play.
