Zadig o el destino, es una famosa novela y la obra de ficción filosófica escrita por el filósofo de la Ilustración Voltaire. Cuenta la historia de Zadig, un filósofo de la antigua Babilonia. El autor no intenta ningún rigor histórico, y algunos de los problemas de Zadig son referencias apenas disimuladas de los problemas sociales y políticos de la época de Voltaire. El libro es de naturaleza filosófica, y presenta la vida humana como en las manos de un destino más allá del control humano.

Story0
Pangloss would have been right at home in a post-truth, social media world. You can imagine the tweets, “I was hanged and survived #soggyrope,” or, “#nosyphilisnochocolate.” Candide, written in 1759, was never more relevant than today. Blind obeisance and denial, barbarous villainy, greed, and rapacity, are all in a day’s toil for the young Candide. And this is in the best of all possible worlds!
