Blog 13: Katherina's Soliloquy

Some lines that i find that are unexpected that kate says are these lines:

A woman owes her husband the same loyalty a subject owes his king. And when she is peevish and perverse, sullen, sour, and disobedient to his honest wishes, what is she but a loathsome, warlike rebel and an ungrateful traitor to her loving lord? I am ashamed that women are so foolish as to declare war when they should plead on their knees for peace, that they seek authority, supremacy, and power when they are under an obligation to serve, love, and obey.

This surprised me because of the way kate used to act and now she acts like she was never the opposite of what she said.

Blog 12: Act IV, A Shrew is as a Shrew Does

Dear Curtis,

As you have realized that your master has become unexpectedly odd with his behavior. so many people are questioning his behavior but especially you. my good man, now that Petrucio is married he wants to show his wife who is the boss. katherina was known as a brut in her town and she needs to be taught that she is no longer the boss of people anymore. 

Please realize why Petruchio is acting like this. once katherina is where he wants her to be he will subside this shrewish behavior. dont forget that when he acts rude to you that hes just showing her that he is the boss of everybody and always will be. thank you for your understanding,

Dr. Mitchell
