"But Honest and Pure Love to Thee" ? True Love in the City Comedies of Thomas Middleton
Original language description
The paper focuses on city comedies by one of the most notable playwrights of Jacobean England, Thomas Middleton (1580-1627), which usually take place in London and reflect ordinary London life. The majority of Middleton's characters are morally twisted individuals who are lustful, greedy and dishonest. They do not have any deep relationships; they cheat and lie and long only for sex and money. These "goods" most often lay the foundations of London marriages. But can there actually be a true love? A lovethat is pure, honest and lustless? This paper explores several couples from Middleton's city comedies and claims that a true love exists even in Middleton's London.
