On October 8, 1871, four decades after its founding, Chicago's destiny was rewritten 'with a pen of fire'.
This study considers the mythic proportions of the Great Chicago Fire as the city reshaped its own tragedy into an archetype of the modern struggle against adversity.
It attempts to resolve the city's conflicted identity into a unity.
