Abstract
The present paper attempts to examine Shakespeare as one who could be seen as exposing rather than reinforcing the patriarchal ways of life which subordinate women to men. This paper focuses on Shakespeare’s Problem Plays such as Troilus and Cressida, Much Ado About Nothing, All’s Well That Ends Well and Measure for Measure.
