The Ancient City is a comprehensive study of the religion, laws, and institutions of Greece and Rome, written by French historian Numa Denis Fustel de Coulanges and first published in 1882. The book examines the social and political structures of ancient Greek and Roman societies, including their religious beliefs, legal systems, and governmental institutions. De Coulanges argues that the foundation of these societies was based on a shared religious belief system, which shaped their laws and institutions. He also explores the role of the family in these societies, as well as the development of the city-state and the impact of colonization on ancient Greek and Roman culture. The Ancient City is considered a seminal work in the field of classical studies and is still widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
