Arguing that patriarchy and ownership of private property are intimately meshed together, Senapati avers that Marston interrogates the misogyny of the Jacobean period by delimiting two predominant myths that have crippled women through the centuries—the beauty myth and the myth of the weak and sexual female—both constructs of patriarchy.
