"De getemde feeks" by William Shakespeare is a play written in the late 16th century. The story revolves around the tumultuous courtship of Katharina Minola, a headstrong and outspoken woman, and Petruchio, a man intent on taming her fierce nature. As the plot unfolds, it explores themes of marriage, societal roles, and the dynamics of power within relationships. The opening of the play introduces a colorful cast of characters, starting with a tavern scene featuring the comedic figure Stoffel Sluw. As the action shifts to a lord and his hunting party, it becomes apparent that this setting serves as a prelude to the central narrative of Lucentio's love for Bianca and the challenges posed by her sister Katharina's fiery temperament. Soon, the audience learns of Petruchio's determination to woo and “tame” Katharina, establishing comedic undertones and setting the stage for the ensuing drama and romantic pursuits that will follow.
