Westminster (as opposed to London) was traditionally viewed as the 'royal' city - the site of Whitehall Palace and the royal courts of justice, its Abbey reputed to be the 'house of kings', and its inhabitants assumed to be instinctive followers of the monarch and the royal court. Westminster emerges in this study as a site of extraordinary ambiguities and juxtapositions. 410 0$aPolitics, culture and society in early modern Britain. 607 $aWestminster (London, England)$xHistory$y17th century 676 $a942.132063 700 $aMerritt$b J.
