" And place your hands below your husband's foot. In token of which duty, if he please, my hand is ready, may it do him ease." Shakespeare has chosen to use submissive tone connotations such as 'ease' and 'duty' as a reminder of the roles both females and males had In the era, which suggests patriarchy was accepted and unchallenged.As an appropriation, "10 Things I Hate About You" represents the same ideas, though they are altered to suit the time and context.

Shakespeare portrays lively characters to depict these universal concepts and thus critiques the social conventions of patriarchal society.

In actual fact, preconceptions based on gender are considered to be discrimination and can have severe consequences.Overall, this play is about masculine assertiveness, game-playing and masculine ideas. Shakespeare's brilliant use of language is the key to the success of this play. Through Shakespeare's language, themes of love, power, status and deception are conveyed to the audience.There are many similarities between "The Taming of The Shrew" and "Ten Things I Hate About You".

There were eleven of us but she always maintained to appear where and when she was needed no matter the circumstances and I admired her for that and teaching me the importance of being dependable. It shows a lot in a person when you know that they will be there for you whenever they are needed.
My grandmother is a person whom I will always love and strongly admire. Without her life lessons and wisdom on how to love unconditionally, being dependable, avoid stressing over the small stuff, being a hard worker and be sure to make lots of memories with your family and loved ones, I would not be the person I am today.

In "The Taming of the Shrew" by William Shakespeare, and "Ten things I hate about you", directed by Gil Junger, both contexts reflect the society of when each text was composed. When comparing these two texts and observing the themes, it is indisputable that these contexts have shown the similarity and differences of the values during the time, thus, it shows the evolution of society.Firstly, "The Taming of the shrew" suggests money to be a very important necessity of life during the time. It is a suitor's economic consideration which acts as a determinant to who marries whom. Both Bianca and Katherine are viewed upon by their suitors as "treasures".

An adaptation of shakespeare’s ‘The Taming of the shrew’, ’10 things I hate about you’ has a lot to live up to and it could be suggested that the makers had a responsibility to address some of the issues in a way that was appealing to 20th century teenagers. This is achieved throughout the film successfully.
There are many obvious connections between shakespeare’s work and the screen adaptation, for example; in ‘The taming of the shrew’ Bianca is not allowed to date boys until her sister, Catarina does. This was tradition of the time period, as Catarina was the eldest sister. Similarly, in ’10 things i hate about you’ Bianca cannot date until her sister Kat does. This was a rule strictly

In doing so they each reflect the prevailing culture of the time they were composed.A modern audience has the opportunity to compare its society to those of the past, a prospect not offered to those of Elizabethan England. This allows a modern audience the ability to analyse views and opinions throughout history, draw appropriate conclusions about certain issues and in a manner of speaking, learn from their mistakes.
