The article “Formula vitae honestae” by Martin of Braga and “lost” Seneca’s paper “De quattuor virtutibus” emphasises that it is impossible to prove, despite numerous speculations, that Formula vitae honestae is the summary or the extract of some non-preserved Seneca’s paper, in particular De quattuor virtutibus which never existed. However, in spite of that, there are numerous language and stylistic similarities, discussed frequently in scientific literature, between Formula vitae honestae by Martin of Braga and preserved letters of Lucius Annaeus Seneca. The article discusses unquestionable similarities in the way of understanding and defining so called cardinal virtues, i.e. prudentia, fortitudo (magnanimitas – by Martin of Braga), temperantia (continentia – by Martin of Braga) and iustitia. They prove the dependence of Formula vitae honestae by Martin of Braga on the thought of Seneca the Younger.
