Social connections, emotional bonds, interstate relationships make “friends” and “enemies” in ancient Greece, determining various and changing situations so that connections may overlap or compete. This collection of papers by Jean Alaux, Michel Casevitz, Diane Cuny, Paul Demont, Claudia de Oliveira Gomes, Marco Fantuzzi, Michel Fartzoff, Adalberto Giovannini, David Konstan, Juan Antonio López Férez, Silvia Milanezi, Jocelyne Peigney, Pierre Pontier and Évelyne Schied-Tissinier puts emphasis on the links between interpersonal relationships and the conceptions of the polis or the civic life during the 5th and the 4th century B.C.; it also emphasises how the Greek representations of friendship, alliance and the opposites of their interchanging, associated with the ancient representations of the world, have been an element of ethical and political thought: we can see Homeric epic contrasting the visions of war, the tragic or rhetoric staging of philia and echthra reflecting ruptures between ancient and modern values, or blurring distinctions between friends and enemies.
