Abstract
The outlines of Skovoroda's philosophy of happiness are rather well known and I have no intention of repeating what many Skovoroda experts have written. My interest in this paper is to explore to what extent Skovoroda's theory of happiness is unique in Western Philosophy. I will argue that Skovoroda's theory introduces aspects that are novel when seen against the background of the giants of Ancient, Medieval, and even Modern Philosophy.
