Abstract
All’s Well That Ends Well has been categorized as a problem play of Shakespeare in spite of the fact that it ends happily with the marriage of Bertram and Helena. Because the marriage is not what the hero, Bertram wants, the ending may reflect a sort of bitterness. Bertram, who holds a typical patriarchal view of life, rejects Helena as his legitimate wife due to her low social status. Instead, he tries to be with an illegitimate woman named Diana.In respect to the idea that Bertram hates Helena only because of her low social status, Bertram represents a violent force of dominant power which abuses passive females and nature as others. Nevertheless, Helena, who has been marginalized as an alienated other by patriarchal dominant power, overcomes her passive status by marrying a man from the upper class and recovers an immoral husband into a moral father. Helena has been misunderstood by many critics who have criticized her as an ambiguous, prostitute-like woman who wants to marry a worthless man in pursuit of sexual desire. Helena, however, can be interpreted as a successful natural force which brings life to a devastated creation which represents destructive power of patriarchy by sacrificing herself like Mother Nature. An eco-feminist reading gives us the message that a self-centered oppressive system should be decentered in order to transform a deserted world into a life-sustaining world.
