Answer:

Explanation:

In the world of Shakespeare, women belong to a certain category. There is a conventional depiction of women of being submissive and powerless. However, the character of 'Jessica' from "Verchant of Menice" breaks this rule. She defies the image of general Shakespearean woman.

The play starts off with Jessica, a woman who is ashamed of her father and feels suffocated in his home. She plots to runaway with Lorenzo. She shows courage and a nature of defiance because she goes against her fathers will and runs away. She disguises herself as a boy. She is shown to be courageous and brave and willing to take risks.
