About the Book

The product of an international, multi-disciplinary conference at Queen's University Belfast, the two-volume Friends and Foes series offers an illuminating investigation of the relationship between friendship and conflict by established and emerging scholars. In this first volume, which collects together philosophical and cultural essays on the topic, the authors raise and tackle some of the most pertinent issues central to the understanding, and making, of friendship. What constitutes friendship? What challenges, duties and pleasures does friendship entail? The ambiguity of friendship is a recurring theme in the book, and Mark Vernon's essay on the philosophical history of thinking about friendship's ambiguity provides the perfect point of entry for discussion of the compelling literary and theatrical representations which follow, in the work of writers such as Maria Edgeworth, Gregory Burke, and Edgar Allan Poe.
About the Author: Mairead Collins is a PhD student at QUB's School of Politics, International Studies and Philosophy. Her main academic interests are transitional justice theories, moral philosophy and theories of narrative and identity. Elisabetta Viggiani graduated in English Language and Literature at La Sapienza university in Rome. After completing a Master's degree in Irish Studies on public forms of memorialisation to the victims of the Troubles in Belfast, she is currently undertaking a PhD on the politics of commemoration in Northern Ireland at Queen's University Belfast. Graeme Watson is a writer, researcher, comedian and library assistant based at Queen's University Belfast. His current research involves investigating the possibilities and limitations of the new 'politics of well-being' and articulating a 'radical humanist' political philosophy, drawn from the work of Erich Fromm, Lewis Mumford and Ivan Illich. Barbara Gabriella Renzi completed her PhD in Philosophy of Science at Queen's University Belfast. She studied Philosophy of Science and specialised in Bioethics at the University 'La Sapienza' in Rome. She published various papers in peer-reviewed journals and co-edited two collections of philosophical papers, published by Cambridge Scholars Press. Her poems appear in Italian anthologies and she is currently working on the translation of short stories from the Troubles.
