–          Baumlin discusses the use of language by Petruchio in presenting a reality of marital harmony between Katherine and him.  By arguing that Katherine’s world is dysfunctional, and Petruchio offers a more fulfilling life, his thesis relates to mine in the respect Katherine is unhappy in her current state and does not know true happiness until she allows herself to exist in Petruchio’s world.
