This book describes the people of Roman Corinth around the year 50 C.E. when St. Paul spent time in the city. The city was important because of its geographic setting, so the book describes the setting. The city was an industrial and commercial center, and the book describes the sort of work people did there, including the economics of the city. The book discusses the major series of games (similar to the Olympic Games) which the city hosted. The book also describes the religions and philosophical belief-systems current in Corinth. The rich culture of Corinth is also related to St. Paul's letters to the Corinthians found in the New Testament. Information about the city's culture comes from a wide variety of scholarly sources, and the book is fully documented and indexed.
