    slowly-developed‚ consistent love of a married couple who have learned how to live with and for each other. These are the two contrasting relationships that we see in the play‚ the former between Lucentio and Bianca‚ and the latter between Petruchio and Kate. Thus the "ideal" married relationship presented by the play does not concern the "match made in heaven‚" in which the man and woman are perfectly suited for each other from the beginning. Rather‚ and much more realistically‚ it deals with the
