Revenge was of prime importance as a means of sur¬ vival for the people of early Greece and remained in force during the rise of the poleis. The revenge of epic heroes such as Odysseus and Menelaus influences later thinking about revenge and suggests that avengers prosper. Nevertheless, this does not mean that all forms of revenge were seen as equally acceptable in Athens. Differences in response are expected depending on the crime and the criminal. Through a close examination of the texts, Fiona McHardy here reveals a more complex picture of how the Athenian people viewed revenge.
