Blog 12 A shrew is as a Shrew does

In the play, Taming of the Shrew, one character is a very mean and angry person and a man thinks he can try and change her. In the process of changing her, that very person changes into the mean one. It is a character change that makes the play very funny. They are two different people at the start of the play, but it changes.
The two characters are Pertruchio and Katherina. Katherina is the shrew in the play and Pertruchio is trying to tam her. Pertruchio ends of being the mean one and lies and does all of the things that Katherina did in the beginning of the play. He becomes the shrew and Katherina is the one that has to tam him. He is marrying her because of a lie and she is going to have to deal with it.
