Abstract
The patriarchal society is based upon the gender difference. In the patriarchal social system the female is contained by the male. Hence the female is supposed to be either silence itself or a macho woman placing herself in a man's position. Whereas the male is always in the fear of castration and gets more aggressive to assert his manhood. Since gender was a significant way of representing social relations in early modern England, it was natural that contemporary playwrights dramatized unstable gender relations and explored assumptions about women in their plays.The Shakespeare tragic heroine figure stands for an independent adult woman who does not conform to the male idea of proper female behavior. Desdemona is the woman of actions rather than the woman of patient endurance, as is commonly assured her to be. Her miscegenation implies that she ignores the social conventions though it leads to her death. Desdemona frees herself from the confirming feminine identity of docile lover, dependent daughter, and servile wife and shows the developing processes of her true self-fashioning. However her final death, or the “sacrifice of love” implies the limit of her defiance against the Venetian patriarchal society.
