The birth of city is accompanied by the narratives of the city's history.The early description of the city can be traced back to the mythology and epic in ancient Greek,while the modern subject of city history began in the 20th century.In the first half of the 20th century,sociologists of Chicago School started the Urban Study,and then American historian Arthur M.Schlesinger took the concept of city as the main line to explain American history,which laid the foundation for the study of urban history.
