Sažetak
In the paper I present two radically opposed positions in regards to what are supposed to be the basic constituents of happiness, one offered by Aristotle and other by the Stoics. For Aristotle happiness can be severely decreased because of the external circumstances, such as loss of child or poverty, whereas the Stoics would claim that happiness cannot be threatened by the external circumstances. Their dissagrement as we shall see is about the content of happiness, and understanding of the relationship between happiness and external goods. For Aristotel external goods are necessary for happiness, while the Stoics claim that happiness consists only in virtue. I will claim that Aristotle’s position is more plausible one, and I want to argue for its plausibility on the example of friendship as an external good.
