Synopsis: |
A careful study of Shakespeare's plays shows that his renaissance women break the typical sterotype of the day. Women such as Portia, Hermia and Juliet do not fit the pattern of the limitations to women in a man's world. Many of the females solve problems that were unsolved by male characters, and in this sense serve as subtle mentors. |
