Резюме:

Our paper analyses the Italian adaptations of William Shakespeare’s play “The Taming of the Shrew,” i.e. films from 1942 (directed by Ferdinando Maria Poggioli), 1967 (Franco Zeffirelli) and 1980 (Castellano & Pipolo, i.e. Franco Castellano and Giuseppe Moccia). We observe how the relationship between Katherina and Petruchio is shown and how the Shrew is changed or her actions are motivated. Our theoretical approach draws upon the classifications of film adaptations by Linda Costanzo Cahir, approaching the films in question as a literal, traditional or/and radical translation.
