Atheism in Pagan Antiquity is a book written by A.B. Drachmann that explores the concept of atheism in ancient pagan societies. The book examines the beliefs and practices of ancient Greeks and Romans, and how they viewed the idea of atheism. Drachmann argues that while atheism was not a common belief in the ancient world, there were individuals who rejected the traditional gods and instead embraced a more rational and scientific worldview. The book also discusses the persecution of atheists in ancient times and the ways in which they were marginalized and excluded from society. Overall, Atheism in Pagan Antiquity provides a fascinating look at the history of atheism and its place in ancient pagan cultures.1922.
