Summary/Abstract: The author draws a parallel between the Stoics’ and Spinoza’s understanding of moral good and values in general, and their understanding of „living in agreement with nature”. It is indicated that the difference between the Stoics and Spinoza is slight when it comes to issues discussed in this paper. Spinoza, like the Stoics, held that moral good could be merely useful and that it is found in „living in agreement with nature”.
