Chapter four Journal In this chapter, the author looks at hermeneutics in a much broader sense, which is much less exact than the exegesis tool. The author again reminds readers that “a text cannot mean what it never could have meant for its original readers or hearers” (Fee and Stuart, 77). That is why the exegesis must come first. So in summary, the basic rule is not to be used alone, but it can always inform the reader as to what a passage cannot mean.

Taming of the Shrew is a shakespearean play that takes place in Padua and was essentially the basis for the movie 10 Things I Hate About You. Although being based around the same thing the movie and play have significant differences. In Taming of the Shrew Lucentio comes to Padua for academic reasons with his servant Tranio. Throughout the play, Petruchio tortures his wife Katherine in order to “tame” her and marries her against her will. Another difference that exists is the play is with wealthier older men and women instead of teenagers in a private high school.

Like an auctioneer standing at the block, Baptista ‘sold’ his daughter off to the highest bidder. However, whether willing or unwilling, it was certain that Bianca was to be married off eventually. Because, unlike in modern society, women were considered ‘unfit’ to live independently and forced into marriages, as shown especially in Kate’s ‘taming’ by Petruchio. Because the society was entirely male-driven, both sisters “have no option but marriage and will be utterly dependent on whatever husband they can get” (Adney

It is a story of how Petruchio, the money-grubbing wife hunter, transforms the aggressive and bad-tempered Katherine Minola into an obedient, honey-tounge trophy wife. Written by William Shakespeare between 1590 and 1594, it's one of Shakespeare's earliest comedies. It is also one of his most controversial works as well. The Taming of the Shrew has been criticized for its representation of abusive behavior and misogynistic attitudes toward women, and the play has pretty much been dogged since it was first performed. There is a lot of evidence that Shrew made, even Shakespeare's contemporary audiences more than a little squeamish.

The fact that Petruccio takes his time in getting to the wedding ceremony is another way Shakespeare establishes male dominance: the woman must wait on the man, because it is his time that all things take place. This theme is further expounded upon as Petruccio sets out to "tame" Kate--he does not allow her to even stay at her father's house for her wedding feast, but because he says to leave they must. He then does not allow her to eat or sleep, exercising his control over her, his
