This dissertation traces the influence of Pygmalion myth as told by Ovid as a foundational narrative on the works of Shakespeare. Shakespeare in turn transmits this influence through theatre history to the modern day. A feminist inquiry into this master narrative reveals the pervasive and insidious effect it continues to have in culture beyond the stage and screen.
