Chern-Simons formulation of 2+1 dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant is investigated when the spacetime has the topology $ R\times T^{2}$. The physical phase space is shown to be a direct product of two sub-phase spaces each of which is a non-Hausdorff manifold plus a set with nonzero codimensions. Spacetime geometrical interpretation of each point in the phase space is also given and we explain the 1 to 2 correspondence with the ADM formalism from the geometrical viewpoint. In quantizing this theory, we construct a "modified phase space" which is a cotangnt bundle on a torus. We also provide a modular invariant inner product and investigate the relation to the quantum theory which is directly related to the spinor representation of the ADM formalism. (This paper is the revised version of a previous paper(hep-th/9312151). The wrong discussion on the topology of the phase space is corrected.)
