Renaissance and Baroque drama offers a view into gender dynamics of the
time. What is seen is a development in the allowed expression and manifestation of
desire by females, beginning from a point of near silence, and arriving at points of
verbal statement and even physical violence. Specifically, in La Mandragola by
Niccolò Machiavelli, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, and Fuenteovejuna
by Lope de Vega, there appears a chronological progression, whereby using desire
and its expression as a metric in conjunction with modern concepts of gender and
sexuality to measure a shift in relation to what is and is not allowed to be expressed
by women. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
