This paper argues that the Nisus and Euryalus episode in Book 9 of the Aeneid operates within the framework of some of the conventions of Roman friendship, particularly those common in the late republic. This approach reveals neglected models and provides insight into the contemporary relevance of the episode. Cet article soutient l'hypothèse selon laquelle l'épisode de Nisus et Euryale, au livre IX de l'Énéide, est dans une certain ucoe res conventions romaines de l'amitié, tout spécialement celles qu'on observe à la fin de la République. Cette approche révèle des modèles jusqu'ici ignorés et offre une nouvelle perspective sur la pertinence de l'épisode à l'époque de sa composition
