xvii, 100 pages ; 21 cm "In John Fletcher's s̀equel' to The Taming of the Shrew, Petruchio marries for a second time and is tamed by his wife Maria in a reversal of roles that has echoes of the sex-strike in Aristophanes' Lysistrata. Written twenty years after Shakespeare's original, The Tamer Tamed is also a revealing insight into changing attitudes to women and marriage in the Jacobean period."--Jacket "This edition prepared for the Royal Shakespeare Company."

Written twenty years after Shakespeare's original, The Tamer Tamed is also a revealing insight into changing attitudes to women and marriage in the Jacobean period."--Jacket
