A rich Paduan merchant named Baptista has two beautiful daughters, the unruly and vile-tempered Katharina, and the sweet and lovable Bianca. The many suitors for the hand of Bianca are greatly dismayed by Baptista's refusal of their petitions so long as the elder Katharina remains unwed. Lucentio, a young student from Pisa, is so taken by Bianca's beauty that he poses as a teacher of languages and obtains a position as a tutor in Baptista's household. As Lucentio is proceeding with his wooing, a fortune-hunting scoundrel named Petruchio arrives in Padua seeking a wealthy wife. Although he immediately falls victim to Katharina's scorn and abuse, he wards off her outraged blows until they both fall exhausted into a huge mound of sheep wool.

But despite everyone's apprehension, the ceremony is performed, and
