    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Shows that Shakespeare&#039;s &quot;Taming of the Shrew&quot; and the anonymous &quot;Taming of a Shrew&quot; feature skeptical parody of Stoic certainty about distinguishing reality from illusion or dream. As in HF, the &quot;framing fictions&quot; of the plays &quot;make a show&quot; of controlling uncertainty and reveal the skeptical &quot;circularity&quot; of any &quot;dogmatic quest for authoritative certainty.&quot; Assesses how &quot;[s]cenes problematizing authoritative instruction proliferate&quot; throughout HF and the plays and, in the latter, destabilize antifeminist certainties.]]></dcterms:description>
