Gail Kern Paster explores the role of the city in the works of William Shakespeare, Thomas Middleton, and Ben Jonson. Paster moves beyond the usual presentation of the citycountry dichotomy to reveal a series of oppositions that operate within the city's walls. These oppositionscity of God and city of man, Jerusalem and Rome, bride of the Lamb and whore of Babylon, ideal and realtogether create a dual image of the city as a visionary ideal society and as a predatory trap, founded in fratricide, shadowed in guilt. In the theater, this duality affects the fate of early modern city dwellers, who exemplify even as they are controlled by this contradictory reality.
