'Helping Friends and Harming Enemies should be read not only by those interested in Sophocles or in literature and philosophy but also by those interested in fifth-century Athens. It will provide them with much food for thought.' Christina Elliott Sorum, formerly Dean of the Classics Faculty and Academic Vice President, Union College '[Blondell] makes many perceptive and unfamiliar points, and all who take Sophocles seriously will have to take this book on board.' Oliver Taplin, Emeritus Professor of Classics, University of Oxford
