I choose Bianca for analyzing one of the characters in Taming of the Shrew. Like Baptista, also Bianca is a flat and static character. sHe doesn’t really chang over time or have huge impact on the story line. However, because of Bianca, Katharina gets to married with Petruchio since Baptista was paying a lot of money for Petruchio. I think her name symbolizes typical cute pretty girl. It sounds like it. However, even thou she seems really passive; she also has active site when she was kind of deciding secretly with three guys for marriage. At this time, rather than follow her fathers will, she was actually secretly dating with him. However, in here I think Shakespeare criticizing marriage culture in his society (getting married with out love but forced by parents) by Bianca.
