Atheism in Pagan Antiquity is a book written by A. B. Drachman that explores the concept of atheism in ancient pagan societies. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the religious beliefs and practices of ancient Greeks and Romans and examines the role of atheism in these societies. Drachman argues that atheism was not a new concept in ancient times and that there were individuals who rejected the traditional gods and beliefs of their cultures. The book also explores the reasons for atheism in ancient times, including philosophical, social, and political factors. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts and artifacts, to provide a detailed and nuanced understanding of atheism in pagan antiquity. Overall, Atheism in Pagan Antiquity is an insightful and thought-provoking exploration of a fascinating topic that sheds new light on the history of religion and belief.1922. This book is the outcome of a request to write an article on atheism for a projected dictionary of the religious history of classical antiquity.
