Each text is complete and unabridged with corresponding notes alongside the text for easy reference, a plot summary at the beginning of each scene, and detailed notes on the characters.  Each play is supported by a range of classwork activities and examination practice, as well as background information on Elizabethan England.    \"The Taming of the Shrew\" is a robust comedy. The rapid-fire volley of insults and slurs that Kate and Petruchio hurl at each other throughout the opening scenes are as entertaining as anything Shakespeare ever wrote. They also reveal the abiding tensions between men and women and the treacherous terrain lovers must sometimes cross in their courtship rituals to reach fulfilment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43663143338044,"sku":null,"price":20.58,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/3677\/6508\/files\/9780198392231.jpg?v=1762961327","url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/the-taming-of-the-shrew-20768","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
