Four treatises by Plutarch are brought together in this book: Having Many Friends?, Not Confusing the Flatterer with the Friend, Taking Advantage of One's Enemies, Listening. The friend according to Plutarch is the one who, while wishing us well, dares to say what is good or bad for us, and on whom we can count. Is it this friendship that Montaigne, a few centuries later, would say is "the most one and united thing, and of which a single one is still the rarest to find in the world?
