description: Love and marriage are the concerns of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. The play offers us some strikingly different models of the process of attracting and choosing a mate and then coming to terms with the mate one has chosen.As with so many of Shakespeare's plays, how one answers these questions has a lot to do with one's own basic beliefs—here, one's beliefs about men and women, about love and marriage.
